Materials:

• Small marshmallows
• 100 square
• Dice
• Whiteboard and pen

Instructions:

1. Roll the dice and place the resulting number of marshmallows onto the hundred square, one by one. 
2. On the whiteboard/paper, make a tally chart to keep track of how many rolls of the dice are needed to reach 100.
3. Once the hundred square is full of marshmallows, count the tally marks to see how many rolls it took.
4. Play again and see if you can reach 100 with fewer rolls.
