Using materials (result unknown)

Each student has a turtle game board. In pairs, the students alternately toss a wooden cube labelled 0 to 5. Five is then added on to the number thrown. Students use materials (fingers) to physically show “five and …”. Once they have added the “five and …”, they put a counter on the matching number on their board. The winner is the first person to cover all the numbers on their turtle.

Using imaging (result unknown)

As above, but students are encouraged to image the “five and …” pattern (hands behind backs) and to describe the visual patterns that have been imaged. If necessary, have the students fold back to “Using materials” by modelling “five and …” on their fingers.
