Tips for Playing this Math Game: 
  • Read the directions to the students and model how to play. 
  • Be prepared with dice/spinner and game pieces for each player (paperclips, pencil top erasers, pieces from another game, etc.) 
  • Every student should solve every problem – not just the person who rolls.
  • Create groups of 2-4 students. The lower number of students means the more focused students are while playing.
  • Remind students that the focus is not playing the game but that’s just an added bonus! The focus should be on practicing math skills. 
  • Show students how to compare and discuss answers. Did you both get the same answer? If students get different answers, ask them to solve the problem using a different strategy or help coach each other through the problem.
