Loved using to talk about friendship

The student enjoyed the game and questions but had a difficult time navigating the board. I ended up putting white boxes over some of the boxes to have a "direction" to go.

I loved the questions that went with the board, however, we had a hard time navigating and using the board as there wasn't a direct or set path.
