Introduction
- Two or three players can participate in this game
- Each player selects a colored pencil or texta for this game
- Players will take turns to roll the dice
- By using the numbers that they rolled, they will draw the perimeter of a rectangle or square
- They will also write the area in the middle of the shape
Materials Required
- Different color pens/pencils
- A sheet of graph paper
- 2 dice
- A willing participant
Competitive Rules
- Divide the graph paper in two equal parts by drawing a line in the middle. This line creates territory!
- Each player takes it in turn to roll the two dice.
- A bit like tetris, the player draws a rectangle or square that has dimensions of the numbers shown in their own territory.
- The player who crosses over into the oppositions territory first loses the game!
Here are the competitive rules!
- Each player takes it in turn to roll two dice.
- You get 5 rolls each, and your aim is to build the tallest tower that you possibly can.
Extension: multiply the dice to get the area first. Draw ANY regular shape of your choice with that area - using only whole, half, and quarter squares. Be creative for extra points and kudos. Would it be possible to draw a 10 sided shape with only whole, half, and quarter squares?
