TUES - 5.6

Being a math teacher I tend to focus on numbers a lot. Today I had my students create their own rules for a game when given a spinner that comprised of 6 equal sections, numbered 1-6, each containing a different animal. The majority of the groups created highly competitive games that just focused on the numbers (as I would have done) but one group stood out. Their game was to draw a physical attribute of whatever animal the spinner landed on in an attempt to make the goofiest animal. Here were the results of the first game. I loved them both and almost couldn't pick. What a great reminder of how wonderfully creative my students are and how different they view even the littlest things than I do.
