The Last Block Game uses Student Sheets 3-6, which were also used for Predict and Cover. This game can also be played on the computer using any of the out- lines in the Solve Puzzles activity of SH_Shapes. ‘Teach the game by having two students play it as others watch. You may ‘want to use Shape H for this introduction. If you have a set of transparent pattern blocks, students can play the game on the overhead using the blocks and a transparency of Student Sheet 6. Ifnot, the pair can play the ‘game with the class gathered around. Or show the game on the computer. In The Last Block Game, students take turns placing a pattern block in shape. The winner is the player who places the last block. As you teach the game, make sure that students understand where they can place a block. ‘A block cannot be placed just anywhere inside the shape. Blocks must be placed so that when the game ends, the shape is completely covered with blocks—with no gaps or holes. ‘The Last Block Game is played with any of the shapes on Student Sheets 3-6 or on the computer. Use these pattern blocks to play: hexagons, trape- zoids, blue rhombuses, and triangles. ‘The first player chooses a pattern block and places it in a corner of the shape. One side of the block must align with a side of the shape. (The piece doesn’t have to fill a corner, but its edge must extend to the corner.) ‘The second player chooses a pattern block and places it so it has a side in ‘common with the first block. Players continue to take turns, each time plac- ing a block next to at least one block that has already been placed. Once a block has been placed, it cannot be moved. The player who places the last pattern block in the shape wins. In another version, the winner is the player who does not place the last >lock in the shape. As the available space within the shape grows smaller, players must think about the relationships among the pattern blocks to avoid placing the last block.Name i Date. @ Predict and Cover (Shapes C and D) Shape C Block: Z-\ trapezoid .
