Establish The Need For Rules

The students worked in groups to come up with a game using only a pair of dice and 15 index cards.  Each group is to come up with a game, name it, play it, and explain to the class how to play it.  They were given 20 minutes.  The groups came up with the following: 

Table 1: Lost and Found

Table 2: Multi-Boobie Trap 

Table 3: Alien Race

Table 4: Drop the Dice 

Table 5: Fire Dice

Table 6: Lights, Camera, Action 

This led to the discussion of our classroom rules.  The fifth grade class rules are as follows:

Be Safe

Be Respectful

Be Responsible
