2. Development:
a. Tell the students We are going to work in our table groups. Everyone
must be whispering. If you talk loudly, other groups will hear your
answer. If the room is too loud or there are individuals that are too
loud, you may lose a dojo point. You must be whispering. One person
will be the recorder and write the groups answer on the white board.
Do not show or hold your answer up until I tell you to or you will lose a
team point. The group with the most team points at the end of the
riddle activity will get a dojo point. You will have no more than 2
minutes to figure out an answer for each riddle. I will tell you when
your time is up.
