3. The procedure of playing the over-sized Snake-Ladder game

To play the over-sized Snake-Ladder game, the researcher still adapted the basic rules of the commercial game. However, the researcher did not use the rules and the procedures in the designed game. The rules and the procedures should be adjusted to the students’ characteristics and the needs of the designed game. The rules and procedures, actually, were made for teachers. The researcher put the rules and the procedures in the teacher’s handbook see appendix I. Moreover, the researcher also noted some expressions in playing the designed game. The researcher expected that some expressions could be used and responded by kindergarten students so that they enriched their vocabularies. The following table was some expressions in playing the designed game. Table 4.3 Table of Expressions Expressions Whose turn is it? My turn Me Roll the dice What’s this? What’s the color? Moreover, the researcher also noted that each task promotes the development of multiple intelligences. Since this research was also supported the development of multiple intelligences among kindergarten students, the researcher synchronized between each task and Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences. The development of the students multiple intelligences was divided into two tasks, 74 namely visible tasks and invisible tasks. Visible tasks covered several intelligences, namely bodily–kinesthetic, verbal-linguistics, visual-spatial, and logical-mathematical. Then, invisible tasks covered intrapersonal intelligence and interpersonal intelligence. Therefore, the researcher made matrix of multiple intelligences development to help teacher mind-map the development of multiple intelligences of kindergarten students see appendix J. By paying attention to the rules and the procedures, the teacher would be assisted in understanding the instructions of playing the designed game. The researcher also produced a tutorial video of how to play the over-sized Snake- Ladder game. The researcher expected that the tutorial video could be used as the model for teacher see appendix M. 75
