Your class can enjoy this Twos Day game immediately with no paper at all, by numbering a sheet of lined paper to 20, or with the included score sheet.

This game is all about items that come in pairs of twos. 3 clues about each pair are shown in progression, until the pair is revealed! Your students will love playing this guessing game with a Twos Day theme.

1. Presentation you can immediately project or screen share. The presentation includes 81 game slides – a title slide, plus 3 clues and a photo slide for each pair.

2. Link to Google Slides version of game. Quickly save a copy to your drive and go!

3. Score sheet for recording answers and/or keeping score.

Your students will be so excited to play this game in morning meeting on Twos Day! Here are some tips for a successful and fun time:

Set expectations for the noise level. Will students be allowed to call out their guesses? Will they whisper their guesses to a partner? Will they raise a hand when they have a guess? Or, will they quietly and secretively record their guesses on paper?

Decide if the game will be scored. A competitive class might love to tally points for correct guesses, while other classes might simply enjoy working together to guess the answers. If you decide to play it as a scored game, make sure to print copies of the score sheet or to have students number off a sheet of lined paper. 

Playing with your virtual class? Try a chat waterfall! Instruct students to enter their answer in the chat, give a short countdown, and have them press the Enter key all at once. My virtual students loved this strategy, and it helped limit the tendency to just repeat answers that had already been shared in the chat.
