This is a method of counting how many points teams
have in a game. It is similar to the Ski
Game or the Banana Tree
Game.
1. Draw a "race track" on the board from right
to left. Have two lanes and several "markers"
along the track (eight markers will last about 20
minutes).
2. Have two cut out race cars and place them on the start line. The two
cars should be two different colours (e.g. red and blue)
3. Assign the kids to either red or blue teams. (A good way is by starting
with the kid at the near left corner of the room and saying "you are
blue". Then "You are red" to the next kid, etc.)
4. Say "Red team stand up". Just to make sure
everyone remembers what team they're on!
5 Play something like the Ball
and Music Game or Syllable
Game to select a student.
6. If they are correct their car moves one space along
the track towards the finish.
This is a fun game, especially if you make racing car
zooming noises when the cars move or overtake (or even
use a music keyboard if it has the sounds built in!!!!)
If time is getting short then make each question worth 2
points instead of one.
