Math Dice Games

August 10, 2020

Kids love to play dice games, but some teachers shy away from them due to management issues and lack of time. When you combine dice games your students can play independently AND practice math skills at the same time, it’s a win-win situation for the classroom. I want to share my favorite math dice games that your students can play in the classroom or from home.

Printable Math Dice Games

In the classroom, these dice games can be used during math workshop, math rotations, or center time. Once you introduce the dice games, students can play them independently so you can work with a small group.

Many of the games come with multiple versions so you can differentiate within the classroom.

Once taught, kids can play these math dice games independently and practice key math skills. Many games have options for differentiation, too. Add these math activities to your centers, math rotations, or fast finishers bin.

 

By placing the pages inside dry erase pockets or sheet protectors, students can play these games over and over again with different results. This will help keep your copy numbers down. As a bonus, most of my games include sample pages. Place these behind the game pages so students can refer to them without interrupting your small group time.

Here are links to my favorite dice and dry erase pockets. I have had good luck finding dry erase pockets in the Target Dollar Spot. You can also buy a large box of sheet protectors. These are a great alternative to the pockets. Don’t forget to stock up on dry erase markers!

 

Here’s a peek at the activities included in the dice games bundle.

Digital Math Dice Games

Because many schools are continuing with remote learning and/or social distancing this fall, I wanted to include digital options that would be useful for teachers and students. In addition to the printable packs, my dice games include two different links for Google Slides.

Google Slides with Dice

This option uses a script program to animate the dice directly on the pages within Google Slides. I have included more information in the resource about how to grant permission for this script to run within Google Slides. Once the script is running, students select Dice > Roll Dice from the menu to animate the dice.

Here’s a peek at the Dice Games Bundle in action.

This video shows the Multiplication Dice Games in action.

For middle and upper elementary, I also have a set of Division Dice Games.

Google Slides without Dice

If your school does not allow you to run the script within Google Classroom, don’t worry. The dice games are still available as a digital option, but you will need to provide physical dice or another website in order for students to play the games.

These digital math dice games allow your students to play in the classroom or at home in Google Slides. Students can practice addition, subtraction, place value, and more in a fun and engaging way!

Another trip to the library? Sounds like a good id Another trip to the library? Sounds like a good idea to me! Which of these titles would you read first?
One thing we’re doing this summer is reading all One thing we’re doing this summer is reading alllll the books (big shocker, I know 😉). My kids love funny books, so I thought it was time to introduce them to Those Darn Squirrels!⁣
⁣
This book follows Old Man Fookwire, a grump who likes painting pictures of the birds near his home. As the weather starts to get colder, he is determined to keep the birds close by, so he fills his backyard with bird feeders.  Soon the birds flock to the feeders, but so do the squirrels. The story takes a humorous turn as the grumpy old man faces off against some clever, but mischievous squirrels. Can you guess who comes out on top?⁣

Our library’s summer reading challenge has offic Our library’s summer reading challenge has officially started, which means my kids are asking for more frequent trips to swap out their books. That means I get more time to browse the picture books. Here’s what I brought home on our latest trip. Do you spy a favorite book or a new title that catches your eye?
When you feel angry, you might notice your face ge When you feel angry, you might notice your face getting hot, your jaw clenching, your belly tightening, your fists balling, or your heart pounding. Recognizing anger is often easier than understanding the true cause behind it. And if you think it’s hard for adults, imagine how confusing it is for kids! I want to share a new SEL book for kids that focuses on identifying and managing anger.⁣
⁣
The students at Sunnyvale Elementary carry a lot in their backpacks - including some things you can’t see quite so well, like big feelings and confusing emotions. Today, one fiery red book keeps spilling out and exploding onto everyone: ANGER! It’s time for the kids to use their best detective skills to figure out what’s underneath those angry feelings.⁣
⁣
“Anger is tricky that way. It tries to protect us from uncomfortable feelings by making us feel strong and in control…”⁣
⁣
Hello, Anger will be released on Thursday 6/2. If you preorder the book through NCYI by June 1st, you can grab a FREE resource bundle to pair with it. Visit helloanger.com to learn more. Thank you to @nationalcenterforyouthissues and @jessicasinarski for sharing this book with my family!⁣

Mabel’s family just gave her the best news ever Mabel’s family just gave her the best news ever - she gets to choose the new family pet! She selects an elephant! 🐘 Mabel is thrilled that her new pet gives big hugs, the best rides, and even has a built-in slide. But when the elephant tramples through the garden and sits on her mom, Mom says, “NOT THAT PET! Choose something SMALLER!” That’s when Mabel chooses ants. 🐜🐜🐜⁣
⁣
It isn’t long before the ants cause problems for another family member and Mabel is left to swap them out for something new. However, with each new pet comes new problems. The animals are too smelly🦨, too scary🕷, too wriggly🪱, and even too prickly🦔. That’s when Mabel comes up with an idea for the PERFECT pet. Will her family agree? The ending might just surprise you!⁣
⁣
What kind of animal would make you say, “NOT THAT PET!”?⁣

Whether you’ve been actively working on mindfuln Whether you’ve been actively working on mindfulness with your kids or looking to get started, I have a book I think you’re going to love! ⁣
⁣
Happy: A Beginner’s Guide to Mindfulness gently encourages readers to slow down, explore their emotions, and take the time to notice the beautiful world that surrounds them. The illustrations complement the poetic text beautifully and I love that there are little reminders tucked in throughout the story for students to practice mindfulness. Swipe to take a peek inside.⁣

How do you help your kids practice mindfulness?⁣
