    well this would have been helpful last week. wish i had stumbled here sooner. i did the activity with the die and 12 paper clips. they had 6 minutes to create a game, then we talked about how the framers must have felt going into such a task. my kids really had a good time and as much as i was dreading working in groups with my wonderful students who have no ability to close their mouths, they worked really well.
