A NEW GAME

Jenna: What’s this game, Rob?

Rob: It’s called tic-tac-toe. Some people call it noughts and crosses and some people call it X’s and O’s.

Jenna: How do you play it? What do you need first?

Rob: Well, this game is online, but in a real game, you need just a piece of paper and a pencil.

Jenna: What do you do on the paper?

Rob: First, you draw at least nine squares. Then, one player draws O’s and another player draws X’s in the squares.

Jenna: Is that it? How do you win the game?

Rob: You need three O’s or three X’s next to each other to win. They can be left to right,
top down or corner to corner.

Jenna: Let’s play together. I think I can win.

Rob: Well, I don’t know about that! Let’s try!
