Watch this game played!This game builds number sense and was inspired by the math thinking of Number Talks. The fewer steps you use to take your given number down to 0, the higher your score! Dice are used to generate random numbers that students will use to break down that number. It's called Divisibility Dice, but are there ways you can use addition and multiplication to eventually make your number smaller? This is a dice game; dice are required (and are not included in this digital download)
The rules are simple: Roll 5 dice and keep 4. Use any of the operations to create a number sentence and record answer. Your next answer just needs to be larger than the last. How many times can you keep that going? (Hint: A lot, if you plan ahead). But watch out! You can only multiply once and divide once for each answer. How can you use addition and subtraction in there to achieve your goal? This game builds number sense and was inspired by the math thinking of Number Talks. This is a dice gam
