Exploring the Halloween Creatures Algorithm Board Set Boards
You will find that pages can only be completed one way. After your children start connecting the numbers, they will probably pick up on the number sequence.
Here is how you could introduce your children to the game boards.
- First, you can work through a part of a game board with your children. It will help them understand how to place the arrows in the boxes. Remember that the arrows they draw or the printed arrows should point in the direction they will need to go to connect to the next step. They need to begin at the word Start and finish in the box that will lead them to the End box.
- Second, children can work with a partner to complete the gameboard. They can take turns placing the arrows in the squares.
