This week we had a change of plans because our speaker cancelled due to the flu. In place of the speaker, we played a game called "Don't Get Mad." A large pile of candy was placed in the middle of each table. If students rolled doubles, they were allowed to take a piece of candy from the pile. Play was passed to the next person. After a fair amount of candy was selected, I removed the pile and changed the rules. Now if they rolled doubles, they were allowed to take candy from any player they chose. Seeing others will large piles of candy, or taking theirs, made excellent discussion conversation.
