Games
Materials Required:
- 2 dice
- 10 x 10 Grid
Instructions:
- This game is played in partners. Two players share a blank 100 grid.
- The first partner rolls two number dice.
- The numbers that come up are the numbers the player uses to make an array on the 100 grid.
- They can put the array anywhere on the grid, but the goal is to fill up the grid to get it as full as possible.
- After the player draws the array on the grid, the player writes in the number sentence that describes the array (ex. 2 x 4 = 8).
- The second player then rolls the dice, draws the number grid and records their number sentence.
- The game ends when both players have rolled the dice and cannot put any more arrays on the grid.
- How close to 100 can you get?
Variations:
- Each player can have their own number grid. See who can get closest to 100.
- Use a grid of 400 (20 x 20) and more dice to see how close you can get to 400.
