TK class play Trash Dice!
Mrs. Stanley and Ms. Sarah’s TK class learned and played Trash Dice! The game helps with counting, matching, and probability.
Try at home:
1 Goal: Be the first to fill your lid with one of each number, from 1 to 6.
2 Rolling: Players take turns rolling their dice.
3 Collecting: If you roll a number you need (that's not already on the plate) you place it there.
4 Trashing: If you roll a number you already have on the plate, or if your opponent rolls a number you need, that die goes into the trash can and is out of play for the round.
5 Winning: The first player to fill the plate wins the round and collects all the dice from the plate and trash can
