Students in Ms. Carew's middle school Humanities class learned to play the card game "Golf" last week!
The Golf card game is a popular, easy-to-learn game where the goal is to get the lowest score possible, much like real golf. Played over nine "holes" (rounds) with a standard deck of cards, players strategically swap and discard cards to achieve the lowest sum in their layout.
