Area and perimeter are two concepts that students frequently confuse, so fun math games to practice those skills are always welcome - especially when they are free!
Island Conquer is a set of two games that provide opportunities for students to explore area or perimeter on a coordinate grid. Students play with a partner and take turns using the Coordinate Cards to plot rectangles on the Island Conquer game board. After each person plots a rectangle, he or she calculates the area or perimeter of the "captured" island. At the end of the game, they add up the total area or perimeter to find out who is the new Island King or Queen!
You can download this freebie from the
Geometry folder in my online Math File Cabinet at
Teaching Resources. I hope your students enjoy this game as much as mine did!
This looks awesome. My class just finished doing some problem solving questions from your website. This will be a fun way to finish up our review of perimeter and area. Thank you for all the great activities!
