Connect Four – Maths / subtraction / dice game

Connect Four / Four in a row:

This is a great game that I use all the time in my classroom. It is perfect for maths stations and it is really helping my class with their maths skills.

This game is for two to four players.

What the children will need to play the game:
2 dice, one colour each per child.

How to play:
1. Roll the dice
2. Take away the smaller number from the bigger number
3. Colour in the answer
4. The first player to get four in a row wins the game!

This game may be played using colours but it can also be played using different coloured counters. It may also be laminated so the children can use whiteboard markers for the game, which can then be wiped off.
