My students love playing this board game on the topic of Taschengeld/Argent de poche.
There are loads of ways of playing it but here are a couple!
1. Students work in groups of 2 or 3. They take it in turns to roll the dice. Students must say a sentence to describe what they have landed on. It is the first person to get to the end of the board game.
2. Students work in groups of 2 or 3. They are given a certain about of play money e.g. 100 euros. They must say a sentence to describe what they land on. If they land on a money square, they pick up this amount of money from the 'banker'. If it is a spending square, they must give that amount of money to the 'banker'. It is the person with the most money at the end of the game that wins.
