Roll Dice in Google Slides
One of my favorite sayings is “I don’t use Google Slides to give information, I use it to GET information.” Using Google Slides to make a presentation is probably the least likely thing I do with Google Slides. It’s an awesome collaboration space! While using Google Slides in edit mode rather than presentation mode your students may have need to roll some dice. Maybe for math, maybe for a Slides game you created, maybe as a way to take turns… who knows!
Template
I coded using Google Apps Script a dice menu into the Google Slides. You must make a copy of my Google Slides to have the dice menu. This copies the code I wrote into the Slides. This is a completely blank Google Slides. Create your Slides activity or copy and paste your slides from a previous presentation into this template so you have the dice menu.
Dice Menu
After making your copy of the Google Slides wait a second and notice an extra menu next to the Help menu appears. Click on the menu and you can choose to roll one die or up to five dice.
A pop up window will let you know the outcome of the dice roll.
That’s it! Just a way to roll dice while using Google Slides in edit mode. Have fun, enjoy!

You think of everything Alice!! Thanks!
I have been trying to figure out a way to do this for my kindergarten class activities. I love it. Do you have any way to make random deck of cards, numbers or custom card deck that students click and it flips for google slides?
Trouble maker….
Thank you! Do you happen to have one for spinners and Coin toss? ;}
I do not.
is there a way to put a visual of what you rolled on the die
No
how do you use your google slide
This is amazing. Thank you so much for this wonderful template.
This is great, but the dice feature does not show up on when using the template on an ipad. Only on the computer. Do you know how to fix this?
Thanks for sharing this awesome dice resource!
