It’s time to travel around the animal kingdom and discover new animal
movements. The aim is to visit as many animals as possible, either with
your team or individually. These animal movements will engage,
energise and active students minds ready to focus on learning in the
classroom. An active mind is a productive mind, and that’s what the
animal kingdom Board Game achieves with students.
Set up like a board game or in a large circle. Teams will use a dice to
roll and move around the board. Each team or individual must complete
the activity they land on, cross the animal off on the game card
before moving on. Play individually or as a team. If you land on
Activate Lucky Dip Card, do as the card instructs and move on.
First team back to the starting line gets to roll the “winners Dice”.
All remaining teams must complete the movement that the dice lands
on. Everyone then returns to the starting line card to start and roll
again (If you have extra time, otherwise you can finish up and start
your lesson). Second round, do 2 laps before getting back to the
starting line. Third round, double reps on each station.
