The Dice Game

How To Play

There are many ways to play The Dice Game. Here are a few options to keep it relevant and exciting for the students.

Option 1. (Above image)

Adding - The student rolls the dice. Whatever the number appears on the dice, the student has three attempts to throw bean bags into the correct hoops to equal that number.

For example. If they roll a four, then attempt to throw the bean bags into the 1 & 3 hoops.

Subtracting - You could also allow the student to use subtraction and throw the bean bag into the 5 & 1 hoops to make 4.

Option 2. (Above image)

Highest score - The student rolls the dice. Whatever the number appears on the dice, they then have two bean bags to throw into any hoops. They add all the points up together including the dice.

For example - If they roll a four, then the bean bags land in the 1 & 5 hoops they would receive 4+1+5 = 10 points.

The student remembers their points and adds them to the next turn.

The winner can be the first person to 50 points, or less depending on the counting abilities of the students.
