Math
Dice are a great way to get kids engaged in their learning. You can use a variety of dice in many different ways. For example, you can use a 20 sided dice for number recognition, creating addition or subtraction problems or even multiplication problems. You can use 10 or 12 sided dice to create problems for +, -, or x problems. You can even use them to help students create arrays or lengths of size to work with area and perimeter. Your 6 sided dice are also great for creating the largest or smallest number and then comparing. There are lots of ways to integrate them quickly. Here are a few quick games you could use.
