Rolling Real Estate

This roll and add game is a little bit different than the others because of its reliance on strategy. Students roll their dice and build themselves a real estate empire across the city, trying to block the other developers. The person with the most floors (highest total of the dice) at the end of the game is the winner. Bonus cards and different ways of playing means that this game will stretch past the early grades. Perfect for literacy rotations.

Learning goals

  • We are learning to add and subtract one- and two-digit numbers, using a variety of strategies, e.g. partitioning, doubles, near doubles, bridging to 10 and rearranging and regrouping of numbers.
  • We are learning to add and subtract numbers within 20, using a variety of strategies, e.g. counting on, counting back, partitioning, subitising and part-part whole knowledge of numbers to 10 and to use the language of 'plus' and 'minus' in story problems.
  • We are learning to multiply and divide decimals by multiples of powers of 10 using our knowledge of place value and multiplication facts (times tables), to estimate and check answers.
  • We are learning to add and subtract two-and three-digit numbers using place value groupings.
  • We are learning to multiply and divide one- and two-digit numbers in word problems using a variety of strategies.
  • We are learning to use a range of strategies to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication and division where there is no remainder.
  • We are learning to use a range of strategies, to solve simple addition and subtraction problems.
  • We are learning to solve problems by using number sentences for addition or subtraction.
  • We are learning to partition, rearrange and regroup numbers to 10 000 using place value groupings.
  • We are learning to recall multiplication facts of two, three, five and ten and related division facts.
  • We are learning to use a range of strategies to solve multiplication and division where there is no remainder.
  • We are learning to solve word problems by using number sentences involving multiplication or division where there is no remainder.
  • We are learning to multiply and divide decimals by powers of 10.
  • We are learning to multiply and divide decimals by whole numbers where the results are terminating decimals.
