Talk Abstract: 
Our talk explores the effect of the spinner size on the length of a game of Chutes and Ladders. Starting by considering the size of the game board, and then integrating the effects of the chutes and the ladders, one can predict the length of the game through mathematical process. This general idea can then be applied to other similar games.
