Star Base Subtraction Game

Topic: subtraction using 1,2, or 3
Materials:
wooden cube with 1,1,2,2,3,3 written on the faces, game board
with numbers less than
12 on it, starship cards, counters
Directions:
Give a group of three or four students a game board and a dice.
Each player puts a
counter on home base. The students take turns rolling the die.
The number on the die
tells how many spaces to move. After moving the player subtracts
the number on the

which is the end.
The winner is the player who has the most starships.
