Today I have a set of poker chips & cards that I picked up for $3 like new. There are so many things you can do with this set! One idea is to create a matching game.

Materials Needed:
◈ poker chips (you can also use water bottle caps)
◈ address labels, paper circles, or write directly on the pieces
◈ scissors or circle punch if you are cutting
◈ marker

The skill I chose was converting fractions, decimals, and percents. I wrote 2 pieces of the match per address label, cut them out, and stuck them on the poker chips.
