Game Play

1. Choose one student to be the father. This student sits in a chair at the front of the room with his or her eyes closed.
2. The tie should go beneath the chair.
3. Choose another student to remove the tie and hide it somewhere in the classroom.
4. After the tie is hidden, all students call “Daddy, Daddy, come on! Let’s go! Hurry, please. We don’t want to be late!”
5. The student turns and “discovers” his or her missing tie. He or she wants to find the tie before leaving, but has only one minute in which to do it.
6. He or she may ask up to ten yes or no questions before attempting to guess the location of the tie. (Is it up high? Is it behind something? Is it near the books? etc.)
7. If he or she guesses correctly, he or she remains the father for another turn. If he or she guesses incorrectly, the student who hid the tie becomes the father.
