1
Game Board Design
  • First Quarter Decimal Project
  • Creating a Math Board Game

2
What makes a board game so much fun?
  • You have challenges like roadblocks or false
    paths that make you backtrack. Then you land on
    a lucky square that lets you leap forward past
    your opponent. Best of all, you are with your
    friends as you play. For this quarter project,
    you will use mathematics to create a game. Then
    you will play your game with friends or family
    for a trial run. Finally, you will decorate your
    game and bring it to class to play.

Planning
  • Choose a setting for your game board. Is the
    game in a cave, in a castle, or in a persons
    digestive tract? Decide whether you want players
    to move by selecting cards, rolling number cubes,
    or both. Do you want the end of the game to be
    determined by the number of points someone has or
    by reaching an end square?

4
Developing
  • Make a draft of your game board. Add details.
    Use good judgment in determining questions to
    answer in order to move around your board. Think
    of adventures and misadventures for your game
    like See a shooting star. Round 12.392 to the
    nearest tenth to make a wish and move forward 5
    spaces or Fall off a cliff. Multiply 15.7 x
    0.0003 correctly or move back 3 spaces.

5
Designing
  • Add details to your game board that require
    decimal skills such as
  • Adding Decimals
  • Subtracting Decimals
  • Multiplying Decimals
  • Dividing decimals
  • Place value with decimals
  • Rounding and estimation with decimals
  • Comparing and ordering decimals
  • You may include other math skills as well
  • Create the board that is
  • At least 20in x 20in
  • Use illustrations and color
  • Put a cardboard backing on the game board.

6
Organizing
  • Finish your game board, and write the rules of
    your game. Organize everything needed to play
    your game.

How Will The Project Be Graded?
Category 4 3 2 1
Decimal Knowledge Your game included opportunities to use addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of decimals as well as other decimal related concepts such as estimation. Your game provided opportunities for most, but not all decimal related concepts. Your game focused on one or two decimal related concepts. For example addition and subtraction only. Your game included no more than one aspect of decimal calculations and uses.
Rules Rules were written clearly enough that all could easily participate. Rules were written, but one part of the game needed slightly more explanation. Rules were written, but people had some difficulty figuring out the game. The rules were not written.
Creativity Put a lot of thought into making the game interesting and fun to play as shown by creative questions, game pieces, and/or game board. Put some thought into making the game interesting and fun to play by using textures, fancy writing, and/or interesting characters. Tried to make the game interesting and fun, but some of the things made it harder to understand/enjoy the game. Little thought was put into making the game interesting or fun.
Presentation The game board, rules and any other related material was very well presented and was free of any errors. The game board, rules and any other related material was well presented. It was mostly error free. The game board was not well presented but only contained minor errors. The game board was presented in a way that showed little or no effort. It contained many errors.
