Spin and Draw (Any Number of Players)
Materials Needed:1. Print the spinners on BLM: Spin and Draw. Use the paper clips and pencils to complete the spinners.
2. The first player spins the shape spinner and the spinner with numbers, which is the area spinner.
• This player then sketches that shape, showing a base and height that produce the required area.
• The second player times how long this takes.
3. If the other players agree that the shape and dimensions are correct, the player scores 100 points minus the number of seconds it took to finish the drawing.
4. Play moves clockwise. The player who just played is the timer for the next player.
5. If the same shape and area are spun during the same round, the player may not use the same dimensions that have already been used.
6. Continue until all players have had a turn.
7. In the second round, the numbers 1 and 2 may not be used as dimensions. Players who spin these areas must spin the area spinner again.
8. The first player to reach 500 points wins.
