How to Play.
Before starting, decide how many Uzzles you have to complete to win the game. There are 4 levels to play. Select the cards for the level(s) you want to use and shuffle the cards and leave them stacked in the centre of the table. Each player receives 5 blocks. Flip over the top card and race to see who can solve the Uzzle first. Once you finish, shout “Uzzle!” and grab the card. Let the other players examine that you have correctly arranged your blocks. If you have correctly solved the Uzzle, you get to keep the card. Once you have solved the correct number of Uzzles you win the game.
The Science
"Patterning positively predicts general math knowledge (Rittle-Johnson et al., 2019). Mulligan, Oslington, and English (2020) concluded that students who received an intervention in patterning demonstrated significant growth in awareness of pattern and structure when compared to students who did not receive the additional intervention. When the groups were compared one year later, the difference between the two groups was even greater.
The impact of the patterning instruction had a positive influence on the first-grade skills of the intervention group, and their teachers reported that the intervention students were able to explain and make connections between mathematical concepts. The study did note that this intervention was more intense and encompassed more classroom time than a typical classroom mathematics instruction.
An unexpected key finding was that students were able to develop patterning and structure skills that were above the normal curriculum expectations in kindergarten and appeared to support early algebraic thinking."
