Over the Hill
Great for number sense and operations.
Group students into pairs; give
each student a copy of ‘Over the Hill' template and each pair get 3 dice. Right hand click the image to use this as your template or get the students to draw their own.
Students take turns rolling
all 3 dice. They are to add or subtract the amounts shown on the rolled dice
and then cross off those sums or differences on their “hill” number line.
They must go in numerical order
starting at 1 and will cross off as many as possible in that roll.
When they cannot create any more
numbers from the rolled dice, it is their partners turn.
Each player’s turn starts at the
end point from the previous turn.
The first to reach 18 wins.
EXAMPLE: Player A rolls a 3,4,6.
They can cross off 1 (because 4-3 = 1 ), 2 (because 6-4= 2 ), and 3 (because
6-3 = 3 ) from their worksheet.
They cannot make a sum or difference of 4, so
now it is player B’s turn to roll.
Each player’s turn starts at the
end point from the previous turn. The first to reach 18 wins.
