- They learned how to subtract the number rolled on the dice from the number of spaces they needed to move in order to reach the finish line.
- They learned how to strategize and make decisions based on the numbers rolled and the positions of their opponents' game pieces.
- They learned how to add the number rolled on the dice to the number of spaces they were already on in order to determine their new position on the board.
- They learned how to calculate the number of spaces they needed to move in order to reach the safety zone and avoid getting sent back to the starting point.
Continued development related to the activity:
1. Encourage the child to create their own "Sorry" game board using graph paper and markers. This will allow them to practice their counting, addition, and subtraction skills while also fostering their creativity.
2. Have the child play the game with a friend or family member and keep track of their scores. This will help them practice their addition and subtraction skills in a fun and competitive way.
3. Introduce the child to other board games that involve math skills, such as Monopoly or Yahtzee. This will provide them with additional opportunities to practice their counting, addition, and subtraction skills in a different context.
