Grade Levels K-4 Classroom Activities

BICEN(5x2)NIALICIOUS

Submitted by: Kim Thomas, Peoria County Alternative School

This game can be created for any grade level. I had each group of students decide on a math concept they wanted to use for the cards. A group in my mathlicious class created the cards for the one attached. You can use any math level or concept to have students create game cards. Since this game celebrates Illinois, my students also researched places in Illinois they never knew about. They decided to put these places on their game board. I also had my students create the directions they wanted to use for the game. After playing one round, they decided to add more cards like "translate to the nearest prime number." It was fun x fun to watch them alter the game after they played the first time.​
