Toss and Learn: Roll and Resolve Problem Solving Friends

Toss and Learn

Toss and Learn is a new series of dice games using a unique learning design. These innovative games help players learn important skills and apply them to commonly encountered situations. Each game comes with four large three-inch square polyurethane dice (two blue and two yellow), two skill sheets, a packet of points, rules, and facilitator guidelines. The blue dice have a situation on each side; the yellow dice have either a question or an action based on an important skill on each side. Players can use the yellow and blue dice interchangeably, yielding 144 combinations. Players roll a blue die and then roll a yellow die. Players apply the question or activity on the yellow die to the situation on the blue die. As a result, they learn the skills and also how to apply them to frequently encountered situations while earning points with each correct answer.

Roll and Resolve focuses on areas including talking it out with friends; being fair to each other; being a good listener; learning to compromise; showing empathy; recognizing when to apologize; learning to forgive; understanding body language.
