Games Integer Board Game Project

Teacher Instructions

Your students have been chosen to create a board game for a math company to help promote learning integers in a FUN way. They need to design and create this to present to the company to see which group will be chosen.

• Break your students up into groups of 2 or 3.
• Each group will need:
• One copy of the Student Directions Worksheet
  • Copy of the Student Job Cards
  • One copy of the Group Worksheet
  • Crayons, Markers or Colored Pencils
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Colored Paper
  • Access to a digital device (if possible) to type directions/materials list
  • One copy of each of the four-game boards (optional – encourage students to get creative and use cardboard or other items)
• Each group will:
  • Design their own integer operations game that must include all four operations and include the use of positive/negative integers and the order of operations.
  • Write detailed directions on how the game should be played.
  • Include a materials list of everything in the “box”
• Each group should:
  • Either use dice or some form of cards with problems on them.
  • Ideally, the answer a student gets will indicate their movement forward or backward on the game board.
  • Come up with a creative theme for their board game’s world: space, a carnival, the beach, etc.
  • Test their game out! They should play it and make sure it works and is fun.
