P.E. Math Week Playing Card Fitness Game Directions Exercise for the Mind & Body It’s important to always keep our fitness routines fresh so that they remain new and exciting, and doing it with family only adds to the fun! These playing card fitness games are design to always keep you guessing what exercise is coming up next, or how many you’ll have to do it. There are plenty of choices so that you can customize your workout to make it unique. Both games, Fitness Uno and Fitness Poker, are very similar games that are structured the same way. Our hope is that most families will have either an Uno cards deck or a traditional playing cards deck, and that is why we have provided multiple options. To start a game, shuffle the deck of cards and place them on the floor in the middle of all players. Make sure that you have enough space around you to safely exercise. One at a time, players will select a card that tells them what to do. The number on the card tells the player how many repetitions of an exercise to do (or how many seconds to hold a stretch for), while the exercises are determined by either the color or suit of the card, depending on which game you’re playing. Each color or suit has a correlating area of fitness that gives some options of exercises you can choose from. If you pick a specialty card, like a king or a draw 4, refer to the chart down below to see what each card means! After completing your challenge, you have earned that card and get to keep it until the game ends. Check the last page for a post- game math challenge, and for more details on scoring (if you would like to). Fitness UNO or Fitness Poker .

Genii Session 2007-12 Brief Updated History Of
Genii Session By Roberto Giobbi A Brief Updated History of Playing Cards When I published the German version of Card College Volume 1 in 1992, I included a short essay on the history of playing cards. In later editions I expanded on it and made a few corrections, among other smaller things I had committed a bigger mistake, namely that of assuming that today’s playing cards originated from tarot cards. The truth, as so often, is exactly the opposite, because playing cards were already in use in Europe in the second half of the 14th century whereas the game of Tarocchi and with it the Tarot cards was only invented in the first part of the 15th century in Italy. These mistakes were corrected in later editions of Card College and I’m therefore publishing this updated version of my essay for the benefit of all those who have the first few editions (we now have about 19,000 copies of Card College Volume 1 in the market). At the end of the essay I have also added a small annotated bibliography for all who would like to obtain more information about playing cards, their history, use, symbolism etc., a most fascinating subject. Rather than calling playing cards a prop, as it is often done in the literature, I would like to consider them to be an instrument of the card conjurer, like the piano or the violin is an instrument to a musician, and I would even dare saying that cards are the most important and most widely used instrument in all of conjuring.

PLAYING CARDS in LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 Ottobre 1995
PLAYING CARDS IN LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 ottobre 1995 Introduction At the present time, Lucca is one of the ten provinces into which the Italian region of Tuscany is divided (the last one, Prato, having been acknowledged only a couple of years ago). Viewed from today, one may find it surprising that the production and the use of cards in Lucca were so relevant as to deserve a treatment of their own, because this is to be expected for cards in an independent state as it was Tuscany or in its chief town, Florence. There are, however, a number of reasons which induced me to carry out research on the history of cards in Lucca. Historically, it must be realised that Lucca had, indeed, been an independent state for centuries, either as a republic or as a duchy, although not quite among the greatest in Europe. It was the last town of Tuscany to enter the Grand Duchy, in 1847, a few years before the formation of the Italian Kingdom. There are technical reasons too; in particular, several tarot packs from Lucca, preserved from old times, have the number of cards in the pack and some figures which are surprising. Apart from the keen interest in Lucca cards, which has recently arisen in the prolific environment of English collectors, I could find no specific study on them, except for a short communication, which will be mentioned, and used, in the following text. (1) A chronological order will be followed below, even if matters gathered are in themselves rather scattered − several original documents, a couple of cards, some laws, a book, and so on.

Tarot 1 Tarot
Tarot 1 Tarot The tarot (/ˈtæroʊ/; first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi, tarock, and others) is a pack of playing cards (most commonly numbering 78), used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play a group of card games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. From the late 18th century until the present time the tarot has also found use by mystics and occultists in efforts at divination or as a map of mental and spiritual pathways. The tarot has four suits (which vary by region, being the French suits in Northern Europe, the Latin suits in Southern Europe, and the German suits in Central Europe). Each of these suits has pip cards numbering from ace to ten and four face cards for a total of 14 cards. In addition, the tarot is distinguished by a separate 21-card trump suit and a single card known as the Fool. Depending on the game, the Fool may act as the top trump or may be played to avoid following suit. François Rabelais gives tarau as the name of one of the games played by Gargantua in his Gargantua and Pantagruel;[1] this is likely the earliest attestation of the French form of the name.[citation needed] Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play card games. In English-speaking countries, where these games are largely unplayed, tarot cards are now used primarily for divinatory purposes. Occultists call the trump cards and the Fool "the major arcana" while the ten pip Visconti-Sforza tarot deck.

The History of Playing Cards
tv THE HISTORY PLAYING CARDS, WITH guttcimits of ijjtir xtst in CONJURING, FORTUNE-TELLING, AND CARD-SHARPING. Ike. hlsiov. EDITED BT THE LATE Rev. Ed. S. TAYLOR, B.A. AND OTHERS. LONDON : JOHN CAMDEN HOTTEN, PICCADILLY. 1865. n/^ /•" TWO CARICATURE CARDS FROM A PACK FORMERLY BELONGING TO THE LATE COUNT d'oRS AY. PREFACE. Five years ago I pin-chased from an eminent French publisher some tasteful wood-engravings, illustrative of the History of Playing Cards. These, with the small work in which they originally appeared, were placed in the hands of the late Rev. Ed. S. Taylor, of Onnesby St. Margaret, Great Yarmouth, as mate rial for a History of Playing Cards, English and Foreign, which he had offered to undertake for me. The readers of Notes and Queries will remember this gen tleman as the valued contributor of many curious articles to that useful periodical. His knowledge was wide and varied, although his tastes were of that peculiar kind which delights in the careful exploration of the bye-ways, rather than the high roads, of learning. The first part of the work was soon in the printers' hands, but ill-health followed, and the book proceeded slowly up to the time of the Editor's decease, two years ago. It was deemed necessary to mention this fact, as some of the references are to matters long since passed, although they are stated as of the present day. IV PREFACE. To tlie French Illustrations have been added several facsimiles of old cards from the Print-room in the British Museum, and other sources.

Franco Pratesi 1810-11: Playing Cards in Lucca
FRANCO PRATESI 1810-11: Playing Cards in Lucca Introduction The present note is the first contribution from my recent research in the Ar- chivio di Stato di Lucca, ASLU. In several Tuscan archives I entered for the first time in the past few years, but in Lucca, and in the ASLU in particular, I already had performed some research earlier on. My main interest at the time was to find news on the renowned (I mean, in our field) Prince Francesco Antelminelli Castracani Fibbia, and concluded that he did never exist – this I published together with various further information coming from the ASLU and the local Public Library.1 If something better has been discovered later on, the credit goes to Andrea Vitali.2 Now, in visiting again the ASLU, I had the new guideline of searching, there too, the account books written by the local retailers in the 15th century, and now possibly preserved in the archive groups of hospitals, monasteries, and similar institutions. I did find some of them, as in other Tuscan archives, but still could not pinpoint any trade of playing cards recorded there. This note clearly represents a kind of replacement: obviously, extending the search of old documents up to the 19th century is more rewarding than limiting it to the 15th century! Even if it mainly concerns documents too early for my researches, I cannot avoid mentioning another archive in Lucca, the Archivio Storico Diocesano, in the same location since the 8th century, with documents of the early middle ages that have been acknowledged as part of Unesco’s Mem- ory of the World.3 If some documents are too early for me, this of course is not an absolute drawback; on the contrary, it may represent a plus point for their importance: one half of the original Longobardic documents preserved in the whole world are kept here.
