We played a simple math game yesterday, that had students practicing counting, measurement, and comparing lengths...all in one activity!
Students worked in pairs. A length of yarn was placed between them.
They took turns rolling a die, then joining that many Unifix cubes together. They laid their stack beside the yarn {on their side} so they could see how close they were to the end. Of course, they also compared their stack with their friend's to compare the lengths!
Play continued back & forth until someone reached the end of the yarn. What a fun activity...and super competitive too :)
Ahhh! Love it...simple and fun...thanks for sharing! :)
