Playing the Game:<\/h3>\n
This is a game played in partners. Use a page to keep track of the score across rounds.
\n(See one-player version in Adaptations & Extensions below)<\/p>\nThe first player rolls the dice. That player needs to divide the 20 small objects equally
\namongst the number of groups shown on the dice.<\/p>\nFor example:
\n3 is rolled, so the 20 items are shared across three groups<\/p>\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/schools.wrdsb.ca\/athome\/files\/2020\/04\/Day-Five-Junior-Math-Activities-Stars.png\")
<\/div>\n<\/div>\nIf there is a remainder, the player records the number of remaining items on the paper and
\nthat is their score for the round. For example, the player here would earn 2 points because
\nthe remainder is 2.<\/p>\nPlayers may earn a bonus point in a round if they can predict the remainder before
\nthey physically divide the objects into groups.<\/p>\nAfter each player has had 10 turns, players add up their remainders\/points.
\nThe player with the most total points wins!<\/p>\nQuestions and Prompts to Support your Child:<\/h3>\n

- How did you figure out that remainder?<\/li>\n
- How could we figure out this remainder? (perhaps before moving the objects)<\/li>\n
- What does the remainder mean when dividing?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

- ***If playing without a partner, play can continue with the goal of achieving the highest
\npossible score. A total score of 8 or more after 10 rounds would be a success!***<\/li>\n - Changing the number of objects is a great way to mix-up and replay the game – try a
\nlarger or smaller amount between 15-30<\/li>\n - Using the\u00a0Mathies Set Tool<\/a> is a great way to digitally work with sets of objects!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
