| Game Description: |
Teams line up in lanes and bowl from spots. Pins are aligned
in a straight line at end of lane to increase success. First Bowler rolls,
then retreives ball and hands to next person. Play continues until all the
pins are down, then team works together to pick pins up as quickly as
possible to begin again. Game is timed and the team with the most points at
the end is the winner. No points are scored until all of the pins in the
line are down. Give so many points each time they are all knocked down and
have the students report the score in a multiplication format. For example,
if a team knocked down the pins 4 times during game and they counted 8 each,
they would answer 4x8==32 points. Change the number pins are worth each game
to cover entire multiplication table. Encourage cooperation. |
