Students should place the cards face down in a pile next to
the board game.
They should all place their counters on start.
The first player picks up a card and answers the task:
 If he answers correctly, he shakes the dice and moves
his counter the appropriate number of spaces on the
board. He can then place his card at the bottom of the
pile and the turn passes to the next player.

the next player.

The object of the game is to get to the end of the board.

The player who does so first is the winner.
