MATH IS ON BOARD
MY MATH GALAXY
I prepared the “Brain of Math” game for prep students
to check our overall understanding of prep math. The
purpose of this game is both to make students review
the topics and have fun. There are two categories of
questions. One is hard and the other one is easy. By
turning the wheel, gamers can see if they will answer
a hard or an easy one. Questions are all about prep
math, including; types of numbers, triangles, equations,
significant figures, factoring polynomials, Venn diagrams,
perimeter and area. While I was preparing this game, I
had the chance to review the topics. Preparing a math
board game was very beneficial for me.
In the middle of the first term, Mrs. Çorbacıoğlu
showed us some options to prepare for our Math Yearly
Homework. I chose to prepare a mathematical board
game. You can play my board game with 2, 3 or 4 players.
This board game’s name is Galactica Mathematica. I
gave the name Galactica Mathematica because this
board game’s themes are galaxies planets and stars.
I prepared the board game for prep students. The
questions in the game are generally easy but the given
time is different for each question, and it is usually short
for the question. This makes the questions hard to solve.
I had a great time while I preparing my board game. I
also reviewed our math lessons’ topics while I was
writing the questions.
I hope my friends had fun while they were playing the
board game. I think they liked the concept and the
appearance. At least that is what they told me!
