A domino is a flat rectangular block featuring one to six small dots or pips on each face; 28 such pieces make up a complete set. The term can also refer to any of several games played with dominoes; these usually involve matching ends together or placing them into lines or patterns before laying them down to create complex, mesmerizing structures known as domino art.
Dominoes can be an invaluable teaching tool in the classroom, showing students how their actions have an effect on larger events. Plus, they make practicing math and problem-solving enjoyable! Watching a line of falling dominoes is mesmerizing and illustrates momentum at work – similar principles can apply in our daily lives and work life: every task that creates momentum should be handled first so we feel confident of meeting all other demands on our calendars!
Domino’s Pizza CEO Don Meij recently appeared on the popular television show Undercover Boss to demonstrate how he leads his company. On this program, he focused on how employees work within each restaurant location, how the delivery service functions, customer response patterns and any issues customers might bring up with regards to delivery service and response to customers. One key lesson from Domino’s leadership was learning to listen and respond appropriately when employees communicate concerns or raise issues within your workplace – this lesson alone should serve as proof.
Plotting a novel requires that you craft scenes that advance the narrative, moving the hero towards or away from their goal. These “domino effects” must be properly spaced out; otherwise they risk becoming overwhelming when trying to add complexity at key plot points.
Building your domino track allows you to design it your way, or choose from pre-designed tracks like straight lines, curved lines, grids that form pictures when falling, stacked walls, or 3D structures such as towers and pyramids. People also play dominoes as competitive sports, where teams build massive sets to play against one another. These sets often involve hundreds or even thousands of dominoes that have been carefully arranged into intricate patterns before being topple by just one nudge from an opposing domino player. Students in the classroom can create domino art that showcases how one event can have a ripple effect across an entire group, as well as personal goals or challenges created from dominoes based on any subject area or activity.
