Explanation:
|
There are 30 unique Player Game Cards provided. Depending on your class size, you will need to run additional copies for more than 30 players. This means that you will potentially have 2 winners if you have over 30 players or boards in any one game.
Introduce the terms found on the CLEAN! Player Cards. Have a short discussion about each word. Provide examples at appropriate times. This is a good time in the lesson to perform the germBLING™ activity.
Once the students return to their areas from the germBLING™ activity, explain the rules of the game. Specifically, one place marker should be used on each square that is called out. The entire board game is fair game (and not limited to columns) for called out squares.
For example, if the “Health” square is called out, a player should mark the “Health” square regardless of whether it is under column “C” or any other column. Since each player has every term on their Game Card, a game of “Blackout” would result in everyone winning. The center “CLEAN!” square is a free square that all students can mark at the beginning.
You can play many versions of CLEAN!. For example, first player with 5 in a row wins, first player to get 2 rows or columns completed wins, first player to get a cross on the board wins, etc.
Play until you do not have prizes left or until the game has met your objectives.
