3.1.2 How to Play the Games

This game will be play with the total of 4-5 persons in a group. This
game must be completed within 1 hour. The winner of the game will
be rated based on the total number of questions that have being answer
and the times for the group to solve the game.

Maze Board Game

1) Each group members will takes turns playing the game.

2) The first person from each group will start the game by placing the
ball at the upper part of the board.
3) There are 3 colours at the lower part of the board (red, blue, green).
4) A ball will move to the either one of the colour part at the lower
part of the board.
5) If the ball has reached the either one of the colour, the group have
to remember the colour of the ball to match with the second game.

Spin the Wheel Game

1) Each group member that has get the color at the maze board game,
will continue with the spin the wheel game.
2) In this game, each group member must target the same color in
what she/he get from the first game.
3) There also three choices of colors on the surface of the wheel.
4) The wheel must be spin at the fast speed.
5) After the wheel has stopped spinning, look at where the arrow has
stopped.
6) The arrow on the spin wheel game must point the same color with
the first game to continue with the last game.
7) If the person gets the wrong color, the person has to spin the wheel
again until she/he gets the match color.
8) The Maze Board Game and Spin the Wheel Game will play again
to answer each of the questions given.

Word Search Game

1) Read the questions carefully and answer all the 10 questions given
by highlight or circle the correct answers.
2) The entire question is related to the history of the circle in
Mathematics book chapter 5 from 2.
3) Each group are given 30 minutes to complete the game. Hint will
be given to facilitate the game.
4) The more the number of questions being answer by each of the
group the higher the chances for the group will win the game.
