 * || Chuck the Chicken

A chicken free version is in the kiwidex called Tunnel and Chase

We played this with the variation that instead of one team yelling "stop" they just throw the chicken again. The game continues until each team has thrown it 3 times.

We talked about the "good" jobs and how it is very easy to forget your team mates when you are trying to win.

We thought that we could play with a different type of ball, play over a tennis net or change the way you win to something a bit like "force em back || Room 12 Bishopdale School
 * || Animal Survival Game

Our latest game is a tag game from Living Springs Camp where players pretend to part of the food chain. The hide from those higher up and tag those lower. We plan to make it better than the original by making the hunter less powerful!

Full instructions are being written as we speak. ||

We discovered that not all games are sports. In fact most games aren't so we decided to make our own version of an indoors game - Top Trumps. We did some art and then took photos of it and used this as one side of the cards. Then as part of our statistics study we gave each other scores for speed, behaviour, hunger and humour. We then wrote instructions about how to play Top Trumps and inserted photos into the instructions. The next step is to upload all of this and play it. Stay tuned!!!

Te Paea, Dayton and Moana (and the rest of the class )wrote some instructions for the game. || We played this game two weeks ago and we found it really hard. We had no boundaries, we didn't talk about the rules and we had the whole class playing. We still had fun but it was only fun for a short time.  Today we played again and this time we used it to help us understand 'Time', 5x tables and how to work together.  We split into two playing groups and Mr Wolf called out the time.  We had to work out how many 5 minute blocks until the time said and take that many steps, e.g. 5.30 means we took 6 steps because 6 x 5 = 30.  It was heaps of fun and we loved learning maths while playing a cool game we changed. || Bishopdale School Chinese Whispers || Game || Room 1 Waiau School (non-cluster) working with Lisa from eTime :-) || BLIND MICE TAG To be uploaded soon! ||
