Description

Fizz Buzz is one of the most popular counting games and can be easily adapted to numbers in any relevant tables. The version described below uses the 3- and 5-times tables. Children usually play the game as a whole class (with the teacher controlling the game and deciding who is ‘out’) but it can also be played in smaller groups of 10 – 12 if necessary, with one child controlling the game. This child may need an ‘answer’ sheet containing the Fizz, Buzz and Fizz Buzz numbers.
