First person to correctly write the binary version of this number wins.  <br>\nAfter a few goes another die is introduced.  Students must add up the denary numbers from both dice then be the first to produce the binary number to score the point.  <br>\nThis can go on till more dice are added into the mix.  <br>\n1 of the dice could become a multiplier to achieve larger numbers faster (especially if they have a fairly secure knowledge of denary to binary conversion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gaming element of this makes it fun for the students and tries to increase their speed and accuracy with denary to binary conversion. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Binary Battle Equipment &#8211; some dice and paper or white boards.
