 PROJECT –GROUP ACTIVITY -INTEGERS

Objective: 

A game for 2 students.

Materials Required: 

A grid, drawn up as shown below. 2 dice (1 red, 1 white), a blue and a red pen. One student has the blue pen, the other has the red pen.

Method: 

The students take it in turn to throw the two dice together. The number on the red die is taken to be negative and the number on the white die is taken to be positive. 

The increase is taken as the score. For instance, if the number on the red die is four, this is taken as-4, if the number on the white die is one, this is taken as + 1; the increase from -4 to +1 is 5, so the score would be 5. The student takes a square on the grid by colouring a square which has the score.

Rules:

 If all the squares with a student's score have already been coloured, no square can be taken at this turn. 

The winner is the first student to have taken 13 of the squares.
