Small pieces of tape
Copies of Tic-Tac-Toe Pattern Fun Worksheet: 1/per 2 students

PROCEDURES

When entering the lab, place a worksheet between every 2 students by taping it to the CPU.
While in the lab, students are seated in partnerships. Let students help each other go through the steps on the worksheet.
When finished, they will team in partnerships to play tic-tac-toe with their friends either using the worksheet paper, or a tic-tac-toe game that they have printed out.

ASSESSMENT

By collecting the printouts, the teacher may evaluate their ability to understand patterning in the tac-tac-toe game and following directions. Listening to partnership questions may help determine the child’s computer abilities and partnering skills.
