Around the World
Brief Outline: Students must respond to questions to sit down. Materials Needed: - A set of questions - enough for each student in the class.
Detailed Explanation: - The first student from each side of the front of the room play Janken to decide who is going first.
- The first student stands next to the student behind them, who is also standing.
- The teacher asks a question. The first student to raise their hand and get it right gets to sit down. The student standing has to continue to move around the room until they answer a question.
- The student who is standing moves to the next student behind them and the teacher repeats the process.
Variations & Options: - If you have a motivated class, you could have it so that that the student who answers keeps going, and the student who answers the most amount of questions gets a prize.
- Make it more difficult for the older students by them having to follow up their answer with a question for the teacher.
Tips or Cautions: - Some students may have difficulty answering the questions and so may be left standing for a long time. Make a rule where if a student stands for three rounds then they get a chance to ask the teacher a question
