3 Let’s Play a Game Divide into groups Object of the game: Quickly trade your cards until you have two sets of four of the same cards. You score the points indicated at the top of the set of cards. The first player to get his/her two matching sets receives 30 bonus points. The player with the highest score at the end of playing time wins the game!

4 Set Up Choose a SCOREKEEPER. He/she will need a paper and pencil. The first DEALER is the oldest person in the group. The job of dealer rotates to the person on the left for each round. The dealer gives each person 8 cards. Players put their cards into sets of same cards and decide what two sets they are trying to trade for. You may change your mind during play.

5 Scoring the Game At the end of each round, the scorekeeper adds the points indicated on each set of cards. For example, “Earn Money” would be worth 12 points Award 30 bonus points to the player who had the first two matching sets and said “Big Points!”

6 Scoring Example You are first to finish and you have: Finish first+30 “Earn Money” set +12 “Be Famous” set+11 TOTAL= 53 points

7 Winning When the teacher indicates the time is up, the player with the highest point total wins. If players are in the middle of a round, they get the points for any sets of 4 cards they have. If someone has declared “Big Points!” and has two sets they also get the 30 bonus points added.

8 Have Fun! Trade with other group members, one card at a time face down Winning hand: 2 sets of 4 of the same cards, for example 4 “Make Money” & 4 “Be Famous” Play until everyone has 2 matching sets Keep score after each round
