Reversible & Irreversible Changes

Board Game
Year 6
A leading toy manufacturer is looking to expand their selection of board games. They want to
create a board game on reversible and irreversible changes but are unsure of how to do this.
Your task is to help the toy manufacturer!

changes. To determine what kind of board game you are going to create, you
will need to research different types of board games.

After researching different types of board games, you are to draw at least two different board
game designs. You will need to write next to your drawings:

With your partner, select which design you wish to create.
