Week 3
Balance It!
This is a 2 or 3 player game
Grade
Materials:
- 4 dice per team
- game board for each
player
2+
Directions:
1) Each player takes turns rolling the 4 dice. Player 1 puts the dice into 2 different
pairs and uses any operation symbols between the numbers and places them on
the scale.
For example: If you roll a 2, 3, 4, 5 you could set up your balance like this:
Write the symbols
in on the scale
like shown so you
can see the
equation (or
inequality) that
you make.
Each side does equal 8. So you made it balance (equal). The first to get 5 scales
correctly filled in on your own game board sheet wins the game.
3) Players take turns filling in their scales. The player who finishes 5 scales correctly
is the winner. (Note: Make sure all players have the same number of turns. Example
if the first player makes five scales finished then the other player(s) gets a last turn
too.)
Game Created by: D. Huntress
2) The next player takes a turn, rolls all 4 dice and puts the dice into 2 different pairs
and uses any operation (+, - or x) and fits them on the scales. You may put your
answers in any order. You do not have to do the inequalities first. (Hint: Since it is
harder to make your scales balance (equal), try to do those first.)
4) Make sure that the numbers and symbols are written in on each scale. If it is not
possible, or if the player doesn’t see a way to make it possible, then the player must
pass. Have fun!
