 Directions
Page 4: Pictures of game in play.
Pages 5 and 6: Assemble cube, spinner, or make both if wanted.

Print and cut apart pages 7-11 and store in one

envelope. Make one set per student.

Print and cut apart pages 7 and 12-15, and store in a

different envelope. Make one set per student.

Each student needs one game board as a work mat. The work mat is the whole note.

Pages 16 and 17: Graphing page cube and spinner (includes a whole note which the game cube does not have)

Page 18: Graphing, make one page per student, use with cube or spinner, and crayons

At first, students should practice by covering the board with pieces and exploring the
relationships of the pieces.

Play:
Each student rolls the cube or spins the spinner and may place the piece on the game board if it fits. At first, pieces will
cover, but it will get progressively more difficult as the game board must be covered exactly. No pieces may overlap or
extend beyond the 16 squares. First to cover the board exactly wins.

*Note: The music notes help teach math (fractions) also, so one set of pieces is marked like fractions.

Pages 19-26: music notes work pages & answer keys
