When it comes to gamifying learning nothing is more enjoyable for children or easier to implement than a game of skittles or bowling. A perfect method for making learning fun while practicing the fundamental movement skill of underarm throwing.
Easily differentiated and so easily adaptable skittles can be used for spelling, story writing, maths, geography, history, pretty much any subject.
Mathematics
In mathematics the possibilities for using skittles are greater than in any other curriculum area. At its most simple level students can simply add up the total of all the skittles they knock over. They can add up the total of their skittles and deduct this from 1000. They can make the largest or smallest number they can for the digits they knock over or order the skittles they knock over from largest to smallest.
