Description
Roll the dice and move around the game board, which features mini-worlds taken from the other digi-games. The more correct answers you get, the more opportunities there are to earn points. Game on!
This version focuses on identifying and continuing number sequences that follow an addition algorithm. Students work through multiple-choice questions that challenge their understanding of number patterns and rule-based reasoning. With every correct answer, they move to a new board space and collect coins based on the colour and size of the space they land on.
Occasionally, a special event will pop up on the board, adding an element of surprise. The game continues until all questions have been answered, and the player with the highest coin total at the end is declared the winner!
Key Learning Outcomes:
- ✅ Recognise and apply algorithms in number sequences
- ✅ Develop fluency with repeated addition patterns
- ✅ Strengthen understanding of number structure and order
- ✅ Engage in game-based learning with points-based incentives
- ✅ Practise logical thinking and strategic counting
How to Play:
- Students roll a dice to move across a themed game board.
- When they land on a space, they’re asked to solve an addition pattern question using an algorithm.
- Correct answers allow them to collect coins from the space—values vary by colour and size.
- Occasionally, special events may occur that affect player progress.
- The game continues until all questions are answered, and the player with the highest coin value wins!
Ideas for Classroom Use:
- 💡 Use to reinforce algorithmic thinking and number pattern strategies
- 💡 Great for Year 2–4 students learning to describe and extend number sequences
- 💡 Pair with hands-on number pattern tasks to deepen understanding
- 💡 Replay to improve accuracy, coin total, and confidence with addition patterns
Top Teacher Tips:
- 💛 Let students personalise their experience by choosing from six characters before the game begins
- 💛 Select the number of players or teams at the start of the game to suit individual, paired, or group play
- 💛 Send the QR code home for students to play as a homework or revision task
Let’s Roll – Addition Algorithms turns number patterns into an exciting race for points, all while supporting fluency and reasoning in a fun, fast-moving way!
