Greedy Pig : Among the top five sought-after lessons, this lesson takes a widely enjoyed dice game & seamlessly expands it into a captivating whole-class investigation. 

Pentagon Triangles : This investigation encourages students to delve into mathematics by dissecting a regular pentagon into three triangles using its diagonals, offering avenues for pattern creation, shape exploration, angle analysis, and a deep dive into concepts like Fibonacci Numbers and the Golden Ratio. 

Problem Dice : At the core of this lesson is a seemingly fair dice game which upon data analysis reveals an underlying bias toward a particular player. The subsequent problem-solving revolves around rectifying this imbalance, with the added challenge of multiple valid solutions.
