RUN, FOREST, RUN!!!

2/3P have been inspired by the Rio Olympics. We participated in a classroom race. However it wasn't a running rice, it was a dice rolling race. We had a race with 12 runners, two dice and the hopes and dreams of all of the 2/3P students. The game rules were:

- roll the two dice and add the numbers together
- the runner whose number that was moves a step closer to the finish line.

It was a great race, with a few runners clearly winning. After the race we investigated the likelihood of some runners winning. We found out that the game was unfair because some runners had more of a chance of winning. For one runner, the race was over before it started. It was impossible for him to win.

What a game!
