Math
- The student learned counting and addition as they moved their game piece around the board, adding the number on the cards they drew to their current position.
- Understanding probabilities was a part of the game as the student had to figure out the chances of drawing a specific card to get their game piece into safety or to send their opponents back home.
- The student also practiced strategic thinking and planning as they calculated the best moves to get their game piece home while trying to block their opponents.
To continue developing math skills, the student can use the game as a basis for creating their own board game, which involves designing the board, creating playing cards with math problems, and calculating probabilities for different outcomes.
