Snakes and Ladders “Systemic Audit”

2. Snakes and Ladders “Systemic Audit”

You mentioned Snakes and Ladders with questions about steps. In a Grade 4–8 context, you can “reframe” this as Probability and Logic.

• The Action: The hallway floor has a giant grid.
• The “Audit” Twist: Instead of just a game, students have to calculate the slope of the “Ladder” (the rise over run) before they can climb it.
• ND Strength: This provides a clear, rule-based reason for movement. The “Snakes” are “Noise” (efficiency loss), and the “Ladders” are “Signal” (efficiency gain).
