Hardcover Books
Each pair of students needs a stack that’s about 3 inches high. |
2 books per pair |
We suggest students work in pairs.
We suggest one game station for every pair of students, but you can set up as many stations as you think might be practical for your classroom.
Make a “cardboard hill” by stacking two pieces of cardboard and clipping them together under the clip of the clipboard.
Make a 3-inch stack of books on a desk or table. Make a hill by setting the clipped end of your cardboard on the edge of the books.
Tape the bottom of the cardboard to the table with masking tape to keep the assembly from slipping.
Tape one cup to the top right corner of the cardboard. Be sure the lip of the cup sits ON TOP of the cardboard’s edge, and not below it.
Tape the other cup to the bottom left corner of the cardboard, so that it hangs off the edge of the clipboard and onto the table. Be sure the lip of the cup sits BELOW the edge of the cardboard, and not on top of it.
Cut out the Tiny Town houses, fold, and place them next to the cup at the bottom of the ramp. Stick the pushpins into the top left corner of the assembly, and the game station is ready to go.
