"I am thinking of something in the room that rhymes
with . . .”The others then raise hands to ask questions to figure out what it
might be. The one that guesses it correctly goes next. (Expand the boundaries
as needed.)
I'm Going to the Moon
The first person starts the game by saying, "I'm going to the moon and I'm taking..." and names an object that begins with the letter
"A" – (or an object that starts with the first letter of their name). The
second person repeats the first part of the sentence, repeats what the first
person is bringing, and then adds something starting with the letter
"B".
Yes, and So
In a circle, explain that the group is going to develop a
collective story. Each person is going to say one sentence to add to the story.
There are two rules about their offerings: 1) Every sentence MUST begin with
the words -- "yes and so" -- building on what the person before has
said. 2) It has to include some number or mathematical information.
Please Be Seated
All the players stand in the circle and all have to sit down
– but only one person can sit at a time, without discussing who will go next;
if two people or more sit down at once then everyone has to stand up and the
process has to start again from scratch.
