The Card Game With Ever-Changing Rules!

The latest and greatest version of the card game with ever changing rules! Easier than ever with just the four classic card types that fans the world over have come to know and love. It starts out simple: draw one card and play one card – but New Rule cards quickly make things chaotic.

Even the object of the game will often change as you play, as players swap out one Goal card for another. Can you achieve World Peace before someone changes the goal to Bread and Chocolate?

It all begins with one basic rule: Draw one card, Play one card. You start with a hand of three cards... add the card you drew to your hand, and then choose one card to play, following the directions written on your chosen card. As cards are drawn and played from the deck, the rules of the game change from how many cards are drawn, played or even how many cards you can hold at the end of your turn.

This colorful, student-friendly Thinking Stems bulletin board set is an exciting new resource to promote critical thinking skills. Eight comprehension strategy charts supply students with examples of thinking stems to use when analyzing text in reading, math, and beyond. Other pieces include a full-size graphic organizer to use to support any unit of study and a poster that defines eight effective comprehension strategies. Carson-Dellosa curriculum bulletin boards are designed to support any classroom with hardworking curriculum-based displays. We have identified that decorative display space in the classroom is shrinking because teachers are required to display more content-based materials. Thinking Stems provides students with reference charts of thinking stems to help explain their thinking and understanding in language arts, math, and beyond.
