How to Play

The first time you play...

  1. Show the diamond and reveal all four boxes
  2. See if students can find the patterns:
  3. Click the gray refresh button (or press the enter key) to get a new diamond

Once students know how to play...

  1. Students work in small groups or pairs
  2. Each group uses a mini whiteboard and draws a blank diamond on it
  3. Load a diamond on the screen and reveal just two boxes by clicking them (or press the space bar)
  4. The first group to show a completed diamond with four correct numbers wins
  5. Refresh the page (press the enter key) for a new diamond while the students pass the whiteboard to the next student in their group (or pair partner)
  6. Play again!
