DIRECTIONS: Each player must have a different colored writing utensil. Each player then takes turns drawing one line from one dot to another adjacent dot horizontally or vertically. After a while, the board begins to fill with a series of horizontal and vertical lines, some connected, some not. When a player draws a line that forms a complete square, that player must answer the problem. If correct, the player may color in the square with their designated color. If incorrect, the other player has a chance to steal. That player then gets another turn. The player with the most squares at the end wins.
