Students prevent a pig from escaping a grid by creating barriers to strategically trap the pig before it finds an open path. The game encourages students to plan ahead, anticipate potential moves, and adapt their strategy as the game evolves.

• Grade Levels: grades 1+
• Skills Developed: planning a strategy, adaptability, logical reasoning, and problem solving
• Standards Addressed:
  ISTE Standards for Computational Thinking - develop problem solving and strategic thinking by analyzing the grid, anticipating moves, and refining block placement strategies
  
• Classroom Use:
  Collaborative Play - students work together, discussing strategies and sharing insights on effective block placement
  STEM Integration - use the game to discuss logical reasoning, pattern recognition, and strategic problem solving as students analyze the best ways to trap the pig
