The Concept: Players will be given three different words or phrases and have to determine which one receives the most hits when searched on Google. Items Needed: Worksheet (included as a separate PDF file) Instructions: This game can be played as a team or individual game. For the individual version, pass out the sheets and have each person keep track of their own score. If you divide the group into teams, each team will get one sheet to record their answers. Teams can be fun because the group has to decide together on an answer. You could have a scorekeeper keep track of the team scores on poster board or a white board. The worksheet only has the first letters of each word so that teams can’t look ahead and finish their sheets before the questions are revealed. When the words/phrases
are shown on the screen, the teams will need to circle the answer they
feel receives the most results when searched using Google. The phrases
were searched surrounded by quotation marks so that the full phrase had
to appear on the websites listed in the Google results. If your group
is split into teams, make sure each team has circled their answer, and
then have them advise the game leader what they think the answer is going
to be before it is revealed. This way the entire group gets to know what
the other teams thought the answer would be. If they are playing as individuals,
you could have everyone vote by raising their hands to see which answer
they thought it was going to be. |
