Details

Get your whole group up, moving, and having a grand old time till the very end in this festive video-driven ""This or That"" game with a major twist added in. The gameplay is simple:
• Two Christmas/Winter themed Items will appear on the screen
• Students have approximately 10 seconds to CHOOSE one of the two items (turn and share with a friend, raise a right hand or left hand, or move to one side of the room; whatever works best in your room)
• An holiday-themed action is then revealed under each item. 
• Then, students have to perform that action (aka LET LOOSE) in the time allotted (ranging from 10-20 seconds depending on the round)
• Move on to the next round, and everyone plays again.

This resource comes with three different ways for gameplay:
• Full Game Video: Drop a single video in your Presenter file, do a little intro (see pro tip), hit play, and let the screen guide the students.
• Countdown Video: It's the full game video with a 5-minute time in the corner for you to make your preservice countdown.
• Individual Round Videos: Separate video for each round (10 rounds of play) where you can choose your order and have some hosting moments between each one.

This Resource Includes:

  • Full game video (mp4 file)
  • 5-minute countdown - full game video (mp4 file)
  • Individual (10 rounds + title/instructions) videos (mp4 files)
  • Title slide (jpeg file)

 

Note from Author

About this Product
The key to this game being fun is encouraging students ahead of time to just let loose and have fun. I promised students that nothing was going to be asked of them that was gross or scary, just silly, then I had them raise their right hand and repeat: "I promise/ to do/ whatever the screen/ tells me to do. "We didn't ask the students to move to the side of the room for their choice, but they started doing it. It was added movement that made the game even more fun!"
