How to Play

• Divide your class into two teams. Each team has a goal.
• In each round, one person from each team stands up.
• First, they say the word or sentence highlighted in yellow next to the puck (see the screenshots above for examples).
• Then, they do Rock, Paper, Scissors.
• Whoever wins gets to move their team's puck toward their goal (win with rock = move 3 spaces, win with paper = move 2 spaces, win with scissors = move 1 space). The teacher moves the puck by clicking the hammer images next to the goals.
• However, only one puck can advance toward a goal at a time. Meaning, if Team 1’s puck is moved two spaces up toward their goal, then Team 2 can only start moving their puck up toward their goal when Team 1’s puck reaches the bottom of their goal. So, in order to move Team 1’s puck down, Team 2 has to beat them is Rock, Paper, Scissors (a little confusing to explain, see the PowerPoint or video above for a more visual explanation).
• Then, two new students stand up and repeat the process.
• Once a team hits their goal, they get to spin the wheel for points.
• After spinning the wheel, the game continues and they play again until someone hits their goal again.
• The team with the most points when time is up or reaches a certain number of points wins!
• Further instructions on how to play and edit the game can be found in the notes section of each slide.
