Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Follow the rules of a two-player board game and record guesses while locating an opponent’s ships.
Teaching tips
Laminate the cut-and-reuse ship version so the same board can be played repeatedly across different students without reprinting.
Make a personal copy of the Google Slides file (via the provided link, while logged into a Google account) before attempting to edit it, since the shared file is read-only.
Skills covered
Coordinate-grid navigation — students call out and locate positions using paired letter-number coordinates (e.g., 'J-9') on a 10x10 grid.
Turn-based strategic guessing — students use prior 'hit' and 'miss' information to narrow down the location of an opponent's remaining ships.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Why does the resource include two different board versions — one for colouring and one with cut-out ship pieces?
The colour-in version lets a class play a single game per printed sheet using a marker, while the cut-and-reuse ship pieces let a teacher laminate a board and play the game repeatedly across different students without reprinting.
