When we roll the dice write down one equation, using grouping symbols. Model the equation using cubes. Then color the model on the grid paper. Be sure to do what is in the parenthesis first. You will need to use 4 different colors of cubes and four different colors on the grid paper. Be prepared to share your work with the class.
