Eggcellent Dice Addition Game
The Eggcellent Dice Addition Game provides the opportunity for students to practise simple addition sums using two dice representations. It was designed for Foundation but is also a great consolidation game for Year 1 students. This resource also includes a reproducible recording sheet, which makes it a great formative assessment tool as well.
Perfect as an individual or small group game.
