Rules of the Game:

Goal The first player to cover all their numbers in their own number tower wins
Rules Once the dice are rolled, the player is not allowed to re-roll the dice to get two
new numbers

Players are only allowed to cover the number on their tower if they answer the
multiplication statement correctly.
Steps Step 1: On a piece of paper, draw a 10 square pyramid. To do this, first draw 4
squares horizontally (in a row). Then above these squares draw 3 squares
horizontally. Above the 3 squares, draw 2 squares. Finally, one square right on
top in the middle. (Refer to the images section)

Step 2: On each square of the pyramid, the player picks a number from this list
to write down: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24, 25, 30, 36). They
should choose 10 different numbers.
Step 3: The players (2-4 players) sit in a circle and each player takes turns rolling
two dice

Step 4: When player 1 rolls their dice, they multiply the two numbers on the
face of the dice together. For example, 6x2=12.

Step 5: If player 1 has the number 12 on their own pyramid, they cover the
number with a counter. If the number 12 is not written, the next player rolls
the two dice.

Step 6: The game continues until the first player covers all the numbers on their
pyramid.

Enrichment Ask the learners why the answers to the multiplication statements are limited.
Simplification 1. Instead of multiplication, the players could add their numbers together.
2. Instead of a 10 square pyramid, players could draw a 6 square pyramid
(3, 2, 1 squares on each level).
