Equation Roll a 6 Game

As a TpT seller and teacher I am always trying to come up with new activities. My husband helps me come up with ideas as well. This Equation Roll a 6 Game is a game that he thought up. He gave me the idea and then I put it together. It is a pretty simple game. It is interactive and fun. Basically, a student works to make equations until their partner rolls a 6. Once a 6 is rolled they need to stop. Then they try rolling a 6 while the other person works to make the equations. The first person to complete their board is the winner.

My students have really been enjoying this game. It is the right time of the year for them, because they have some foundational skills and are ready for this type of practice.  We've been playing this game as a whole class activity, with students partnering up to play. It has been a great resource to pull out when I want to give students an activity that serves as kind of a brain break, but still provides practice time.

This product is available at my TpT Store if you are interested.
