Instructional Ideas

• As the resource suggests, play this game to celebrate the 100th day of the school year
• Mix up the game by adding in additional dice or requiring learners to complete other math problems along the way
• Have a game day and make enough boards so that all kids can pair off and play

Classroom Considerations

• While this is intended as a partner activity, an individual could play to reach 100 on their own and receive a small prize when they get there

Pros

• Comes with the game board and suggestions for how to put it together and make it last a long time
• Includes a bonus point idea that requires learners to read large numbers correctly

Cons

• None
