I apologize for the delay in posting. 

Division I started a new game — Hex-a-Gone.  Hex-a-Gone uses wooden shape blocks for children to fill a shape pattern on the gameboard.  The students started on small shape pattern sheets to become familiar with the pieces and the placement of those pieces.  Next week, the students will see the full size gameboard and begin learning the rules to the game.

Division II also started a new game — Sum Dominos & Dice.  There are many rules to this game and this game can become very confusing, so any help you can give your students at home will be helpful to the coaches.  The students started learning how to roll the dice, add up the sum and find 2 dominos to play that also made that sum.  Next week, they will begin learning the rules to the game and the proper placement of the dominos.

Division III finished up their last week for Stars & Bars.  This game ran 5 weeks and some of our students are still having problems grasping the concepts of this game.  If this is the case, please email me (or your child’s coach) to get some extra worksheets to reinforce these concepts at home.  Next week, they will be starting their 3rd game, Queens and Guards.
