GEOMINOES LEVEL: Grade 1-3 SKILLS: matching patterns PLAYERS: 2 EQUIPMENT: two sets of dominoes, one gameboard per player (see reproducible) GOAL: To be the first player to complete enough patterns to score ten points. Each shape is worth a designated number of points. GETTING STARTED: Dominoes are placed face down and shuffled. Player One draws a domino and places it onto any open space of their gameboard. The goal is to build shapes by matching pips on adjacent dominoes. Once a shape on the gameboard is complete that player earns the amount of points associated with that shape. EXAMPLE: Dominoes cannot be moved once placed onto a player's gameboard. Players alternate turns until one player earns a total of ten points. 3-point shape on gameboard Completed 3-point shape on gameboard Pips match, completing this pattern and this player scores 3 points.

GETTING STARTED: Dominoes are placed face down and shuffled. Each player has their own gameboard. Player One draws a domino, counts the pips and matches this total to the correct number word on their board. Player Two draws a domino, counts and matches their domino to the correct number word on their board. The player who fills in all their number words first, is the winner. NOTE: Players will have several number words that contain more than one domino. Also, if the goal is for each player to cover up their entire gameboard (one to twelve), they may want to use two complete sets of dominoes from which to draw. EXAMPLE: one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve
