Math Game / Board Game
Some Notes:
Be as creative as possible. You may take inspiration from a current type of game but do not
copy. Your board game must include materials, a rule/direction card, and a box/type of
packaging. It must be based on one of the lessons will learned in math.
The final total grade will be based out of 20, which will then be converted to a grade out of 100.
