Product Description
DONUTS is a fun and engaging math game for people of all ages to play. My students always beg me to play the game.
- The object of the game is to guess a mystery number in as few steps as possible.
- Clues are given after each guess.
- Throughout the game, students practice place value and critical thinking skills.
DONUTS is an excellent game to play at home. There is no preparation needed. Paper and pencil are the only materials needed to play the game.

- Detailed directions
- Examples of the game
- A poster for displaying the clues (optional) – (Comes in color and black/white)
In the classroom, DONUTS is a perfect game to play anytime during the day when you have a few extra minutes.
This game can be played with the entire class, in small groups, or with a partner. It is best to play the game as an entire class for a while, so students become familiar with the rules.
