How to Play

• For this game, students play in groups of 3 or 4.
• Their goal is to try to be the first to move up to the top of the pyramid to save Princess Peach. 
• First, a student chooses which box they want to go to.
• Then, their group asks them the target question (if you have one) and the student responds using the image or text in the box.
• Then, they must roll a certain number on the dice to move into that box (as displayed by the numbers on the right of the pyramid).
• If they don't roll that number or above, they have to stay where they are.
• Also, only 1 student can be in a box at a time, so if a student wants to move to a box that's already occupied, a "dice duel" commences.
• For a "dice duel," each participant rolls the dice and whoever gets the higher number stays in the box and the loser has to go back to start. 
• The first person to reach the top of the pyramid wins!
• For more visual and in-depth instructions, view the PowerPoint.

Variations

• To play as a speaking game, use images in the boxes. To play as a reading game, use words or sentences in the boxes.
