The Dice Team GameTime needed: 10mins For the team version of the same game, you split the class in half and appoint two team captains to come up to the board. The teams take it in turn to roll the dice and numbers are gradually put in their grids. If the numbers are subtracted at the end of the game, zero is a great target and really gets people thinking about the importance of place value and the probability of getting the number they need. It can be varied with different targets, operation and grid arrangements. Of course, both of these games can be played with small handheld dice but it much more fun for the students to actually be throwing the big foam dice across the room.
