Show students how to play Filling Boxes in pairs:
- Students take turns rolling two dice, adding together the numbers shown and collecting that many lollies (cubes). They place their lollies in the "Loose lollies" column of their gameboard.
- When a student has 10 lollies in their "Loose lollies" column, they stack the lollies together as a roll and place the stack in the "Rolls" column of their gameboard.
- When a student has 10 rolls in their "Rolls" column, the student groups their rolls into a box.
- The first player to collect a box is the winner.
Variations:
- The player with the most lollies after a given number of turns wins the game.
- The player with the fewest lollies after a given number of turns wins the game.
- The player who is closest to 200 lollies after 20 turns each wins the game.
