FIVE-ZI

SUPPLIES

DIRECTIONS

  • 10 large foam dice (5 per team)

  1. Divide students into 2 teams.

  2. Each team gets 5 large foam dice.

  3. The object of the game is to be the first team to get all 5 of your dice to show the same number.

  4. Students take turns answering questions (Rotate subjects: Math, English, Science, Geography, History, Timeline).

  5. If the student answers correctly, they get ONE point for their team AND get to roll their team’s dice. On a team’s first roll, the student rolls all 5 dice at once, then on subsequent turns they roll however many they want - strategically aiming to get all 5 of the dice to show the same number. For instance, if a team already has two 3’s, a student might set those to the side, and roll the other dice to try to get 3’s.

  6. The first team to get all 5 of their dice to show the same number shouts “FIVE-ZI!” and wins TWO points.  The team with the most points at the end of the time period wins!
