[Teachldsseminary] IDEA: SM games

[Debby Moon]

Here are a couple of SM games that I wanted to share:
1- Dodgeball--We played this yesterday and as I discussed it with the class 
after we agreed on some changes to the rules to make it more fun.
Materials:
card with the current SM typed out
playground ball
Directions:
Put the ball on the free throw line and the "reader" reads the scripture, 
stopping at any point, whomever knows the next 3 words runs to get the ball, 
if they say the next three words correctly they start throwing.  If you are 
hit, you sit on the side. Anyone can get the ball and throw it.  If someone 
catches the ball, the thrower is out.  The last person left standing, is the 
next reader.   With 12 people, it only took a couple of minutes for everyone 
to get out and the next round to start.

2-SWAT-- 
Materials:
2 clean flyswatters
Directions:
Draw the magic square on the board with the numbers included.  Two players 
each hold a swatter and stand on each side of the board.   The caller gives 
an action clue or a "keyword" clue.  The first person to swat the correct 
square, stays up "defending champion" and the next challenger comes up. 
Once the "defending champion" has gone through all of the challengers, they 
become the caller.

Hope you have fun!
