Monty loves living with you, but he has to live with whoever has the most candy to feed him. Your school is having a math quiz and the prize for getting answers correct is candy! Your friends like Monty too, and they are competing with you to get candy. They hope to win more candy than you so Monty can come to their house. Do your best to answer the questions so that you don’t loose your pet monster Monty. The person with the most candy at the end wins Monty.

My Math Monster Monty, Hallie Landrum, 2008 Directions Each person gets a candy basket game board. For each question you get correct, take one piece of candy from the candy bucket. For each question you get incorrect, you get no candy from the candy bucket. Alternate turns between players, and after each player has answered 15 questions the game is over. Each player then adds up his or her candy to see who has the most candy, and that person gets to keep Monty.
