Aims of the Game • Divide the class into 4 groups – red, green, yellow and blue • The aim is for each group to the obtain their 4 coloured fish faster then any other group • To do this they must first find their fish and then answer the questions correctly
WHY USE THE FISH GAME? • It is best used as a revision tool at the end of a topic / module • It can be used with any year group • It promotes team work • High level question techniques can be incorporated • It consolidates ideas
WHAT IS THE FISH GAME! • It is a cork pin board with 16 coloured pockets on it. • There are 4 pockets of each colour; red, green, yellow and blue • The red pockets are labelled A1 to A4, the green pockets are labelled B1 to B4, yellow C1 to C4 and finally blue D1 to D4.
THE FISH! • Inside each pocket is a paper fish – these need to be made! • Somewhere on the board there are 4 red fish, 4 green fish, 4 yellow fish and 4 blue fish • The aim of the game is for each team to collect their 4 fish
WHERE DO THE FISH GO? • The fish go inside the pockets • They DO NOT have to go in their coloured pocket i.e. the red fish do not have to go in the red pockets • There does have to be one of each coloured fish in the 1 column, the 2 column, the 3 column and the 4 column.
HOW TO PLAY • You need a question for every pocket on the board – see example questions provided • The A1 to D1 questions should be the easiest whilst the A4 to D4 questions should be the hardest • Each team therefore needs to answer an easy question progressing through to a hard question in order to win the game • The questions remain the same for each pocket throughout the game
HOW TO PLAY • The red team goes first and picks a pocket eg. A1 • The question for A1 is read out • If they are incorrect you move onto the next team WITHOUT answering the question • If they are correct you look in the pocket • If it is a red fish then give it to them and they get another go • If it is not there coloured fish DO NOT tell them which colour it is, just move onto the next team
