Description
These games have been chosen or adapted from games played all over the world. For each there is a photocopiable A4 sheet which gives the board and the rules. Children then try to work out a winning or not losing strategy within those rules. Later, they are encouraged to alter them and to explore the effect such changes have on the strategy of the game. Extensive teachers notes are included.
