Cumulative Progress Indicator:3 - The student will play simple two-person games (e.g., tic-tac-toe) and informally explore the idea of what the outcome should be.

 

Grade: 2

 

Sample Activities:

 

·        Students play simple games and discuss why they make the moves they do. For example, two students divide a six-piece domino set (with 0-0, 0-1, 0-2, 1-1, 1-2, and 2-2) and take turns placing dominoes so that dominoes which touch have the same numbers and so that all six dominoes are used in the chain.
