This is a great game where you really have to think. It sounds simple,
but try it out with a couple of friends and see how tough, and fun, it
really is!
1. Put everyone in groups of between 2 and 10 kids.
2. The first person says either "1", "2" or "3"
3. The next person continues on and can say an additional one, two or three
numbers.
E.g. if the first person said "1, 2", the second person can say
either "3" or "3,4" or "3,4,5"
4. Continue around the group until one person is forced to say "13".
They are now out.
5. Start again from step 2.

Seems like it might be good for teaching months of the year as well, say December you lose. That way you can use it with slightly
higher level students.

Great game this, I use it often to warm up. In my version, if a students
says TWO numbers, the direction is reversed. If they say THREE numbers
the next student is missed out. After a while the kids get into throwing
each other false glances, pointing at the wrong person in order to draw
out a 'foul'. We continue up until 21. The student who has to say 21 receives
a penalty (up to you!). It's fun because the kids always try to get the
smartest kid to say 21, and he loves the challenge!
