The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Purpose:

  • To match patterns.

You need:

How to play:

  • Children throw the dice, read the number pattern they have thrown and find the matching puzzle piece to place on their master card.
  • The game is over when the entire car is covered.

Variations:

  • You may wish to play this activity without the dice at first so the children are learning to match and make the car following the patterns they can see.
  • Create your own game board, for example, using a house or a school building.
