Daily Idea #324: Dice Roll

We are always working on number recognition and math in some way, shape, and form in our home. I found this game on inspiredelementary.com and thought we would try it for today’s daily idea.

On a blank piece of paper, draw a 10X10 grid big enough to write the numbers 1-100 with one number per square. Each player gets a different color marker. Taking turns, each player rolls two dice and counts that many spaces on the board starting at 1 for their first turn and continuing through to 100. When the player counts out their spaces for that turn and lands on the last space they must say that number. If the number is said correctly they then mark that space with their marker (either with an X or by outlining the square). If they don’t say the number correctly, they loose their turn and the next player goes. The player that makes it to 100 first wins!
