Noggle!

Behold the Wonderment of NOGGLE!

Our Year 3 teacher created a new twist on the letter game Boggle. It is using numbers - hence Noggle!

The students are given a grid such as this:
The rules for Noggle are:

  1. Write all the number sentences you can find using the numbers on the grid.
  2. The boxes that the numbers are in must be touching.
 The students recorded their number sentences using this sheet:



Noggle can be played using the Cooperative Learning structure of RallyCoach.

The Year 3 students are now off to teach Noggle to the class next door! 

Noggle is linked to the following Mathematics Content from The Australian Curriculum:

  • Recognise and explain the connection between addition and subtraction (ACMNA054)
  • Recall addition facts for single digit numbers and related subtraction facts to develop
    increasingly efficient mental strategies for computation (ACMNA055)
