I saw this game a while ago from Dan Finkel’s Math4Love site<\/a>. We’ve used other activities based on ideas presented there. Students may remember trying to guess my rule,<\/em> playing Target Number,<\/em> or playing the Prime Climb board game; these all came from Math4Love. The game I’d like to introduce to you here is called\u00a0Horseshoes<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This game is great for many reasons, not least of which being that it now has its own theme song! Please check it out in the video here. It will help if you can do so before our meeting later today so we can play it together (even while we are working remotely online). You can record your thinking any way you like when we play; if you like, you can use this document<\/a>, which is set up a little like the whiteboards seen in the video.
