Students use creativity to demonstrate mastery with operations involving exponents and radicals. The Exponents & Radicals Board Game gives students the opportunity to create a wholly original game that incorporates: evaluating exponents, evaluating radicals, negative exponents, fractional exponents, and the exponent rules. Students must write the instructions for the game, create game pieces and determine how those pieces move around the board (spinner, dice, etc.).

 What other teachers are saying …

“Love what my students created! It gave enough information for them to apply their knowledge in a creative and fun way. Thank you.” - Nora M.

“I used this as a project for my students to create a radical review game. I took the advice from the seller and had students play these in class before I took them up to grade them. Students were very creative and it was easy to see who had put forth effort and who had not. Overall it was a huge success and students found their mistakes during the playing of the games, which was an awesome review before their test.” - Syrena C.

“Great idea. I liked having it on the folders so it was all in one spot.” -Melissa S.
