JANKEN QUESTION GAME - Short Lesson
By:re

Give each student five playing cards. Each playing card is a grid with five names down the side and five actions on the top (e.g. James, Hannah, Gail, Peter, Sanjit and wash the dishes, clear the table, mow the lawn, clean the house, walk the dog). The grid is filled in with X s and O s X means no and O means yes. All playing cards are identical. Students circle one name on every card and then move around the room looking for an opponent. The students janken to see who asks first. The winner (A) asks B a question like Do you wash the dishes? B looks at the card and decides whether their person washes the dishes. An X in the spot means that the person doesn t wash the dishes, an O that they do. B must answer truthfully. Next A can guess who B is. If A guesses correctly, A can take B s card. If A guesses incorrectly, both players keep their cards. In either case, students janken again and the winner asks another question. After this round, the students must change partners. The student with the most cards at the end of a time limit wins. Colour coding the cards for points makes ties less likely.
