Description+PlusOut!! is a brain-training strategy numbers game designed to boost your math skills through play! Built for 3 to 4 Players along grades 2 to 4. Battle for 200 Points by snagging cards, spying hands, and swapping moves as you subtract, add, multiply and divide points against other players. Players improve their math skills through a social, shared self-motivating competitive experience they can return to without a teacher.

>> Game mechanics are all aligned to Common Core and Eureka Math Standards, leading to practice and improvement of skills but also confidence of numeracy and a reduction in fear of math. No player must be "good at math" to win or play----they simply can use tactics to reach 200 Points whether relying on their subtraction skills or addition or tactical multiplication moves.

>> Players improve in Mental Math, Number Operations, Algebraic Thinking and Numerical Esteem. A Parent-Teacher Standards Alignment ELO Guide is included, also covering home/school uses for 1st to 4th graders.
