Special Resources, Life Skills, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Games, Activities
In this Roll & Respond game , students will answer questions related to the 3 prongs of self-care; physical, emotional, and social. This game is played with 2 partners who each roll a number. One is for the across number and the other is for the vertical number. It is like the game of Battleship where they will then answer the question where the 2 numbers intersect. If they get a repeat, they can answer any on that line (vertical or horizontal). They can try and get Bingo or Blackout. If anyone rolls a 6, they choose the question. This is a great activity to follow a lesson on self-care.
