About Dots and Boxes
Dots and boxes is a classic pencil-and-paper game which goes by a variety of different names including dots, boxes, pigs in a pen, the game of dots, or dots and dashes.
The game was originally named “la pipopipette” when it was published in the 19th century by Edouard Lucas, a French mathematician.
Instructions and Scoring
Like the original dots and boxes game, this is a paper and pencil game for two players. Take turns drawing a line from one dot to another on the grid. If your line completes a box, write your initials in the box and take an extra turn.
Each completed square is worth one point. Earn an additional bonus point for each Veterans Day picture in your squares. Once the grid is completely filled, the player with the most points wins.
I would recommend placing this puzzle in a dry erase pocket when using it in your classroom.
