How to Play
The first time you play...
- Show the diamond and reveal all four boxes
- See if students can find the patterns:
- The top of the diamond is the product of the side numbers
- The bottom of the diamond is the sum of the sides
- Click the gray refresh button (or press the enter key) to get a new diamond
Once students know how to play...
- Students work in small groups or pairs
- Each group uses a mini whiteboard and draws a blank diamond on it
- Load a diamond on the screen and reveal just two boxes by clicking them (or press the space bar)
- EASY: Reveal the two side boxes
- MEDIUM: Reveal one side box and either the top or bottom box
- HARD: Reveal the top and bottom box
- The first group to show a completed diamond with four correct numbers wins
- 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)
- Play again!
