Battleship http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-board-games-we-secretly-hate.php
Each student will have FIVE SHIPS: Carrier (5 intersections long) Battleship (4 long) Cruiser (3 long) Submarine (3 long) and Destroyer (2 long). http://www.vasetthestandard.com/images/LOngitude-and-Latitude-Battleship-Game.doc
Each student will place the ships on the map, making sure each ship covers the correct amount of grid intersections. 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
MAKE SURE each student cannot see the opponent’s map. http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-board-games-we-secretly-hate.php
30N°120W° is NOT a “hit,” so Student B will tell Student A “miss 30N°120W° is NOT a “hit,” so Student B will tell Student A “miss.” Then both students will mark their grids accordingly. 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
Both students will mark their grids accordingly. 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
This reminds Student A not to bother calling that again This reminds Student A not to bother calling that again. It tells Student B that Student A doesn’t have any ships at that point, either. (Why?) 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
Now Student B calls 5°S 60°W. Student B says “no hit,” so both mark it. 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
It’s Student B’s turn again. He calls out 60°N 150°W. That’s a “hit It’s Student B’s turn again. He calls out 60°N 150°W. That’s a “hit.” So Student A says: “Hit, it’s a battleship.” 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
Student A marks the hit on his own ship Student A marks the hit on his own ship. (When all four coordinates of this battleship are hit, it’s “sunk.”) 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E°
Student B also marks the hit. But that student also tells what was hit. 30E° 60E° 90E° 120E° 150E° 180E° B
THE OBJECT OF THE GAME is to be the first player to sink all five of his opponent's ships – oh, and to practice longitude & latitude! .
