Description
The Diced Maths® Number Reach™ activity exercises mental maths, problem solving, approximation and most of BODMAS (brackets, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) using whole positive numbers. This fun game can be played by individual students, small groups, or an entire class!
- Diced Maths® Number Reach™ uses target numbers up to 999 (3 digits), whereas our Number Reach™ Junior uses target numbers up to 99 (2 digits). At upper primary school level, students tend to already prefer playing the full game even though they regard it as challenging;
- Requires Diced Maths® dice set (or equivalent) to generate the random numbers;
- No time limit is applied in the basic game. If a group gets really proficient, a time limit could be used.
Aligned with a broad range of curriculum topics for Year 4, 5 and 6 level maths.
Brad –
I played this game 3 or 4 times with my grade 4 son. He said he would enjoy it more when he’s a bit older. His feedback is below:
For me it was a bit hard so we ended up using a calculator and still not get up to the number, but it was still fun.
