Prior to attending Sidewalk Chalk with your class, introduce them to some of the vocabulary that may be new or challenging to them so that they can get the most out of their theatre experience.
- Ask your students to go to 'Sidewalk Chalk Vocabulary Game' from their iPad.
- Pass out a different noisemaker or instrument to each group. This is for them to use when their group knows the answers. Only groups that use their noisemaker or instrument can be called upon, groups that yell out anything without having been called upon lose 5 points.
- Randomly read one of the definitions of the words below out loud.
- When a group knows which word matches the definition, they are to play their instrument or noisemaker.
- Call upon the first group to ‘ring’ in
- If they are correct, they get 10 points.
- If they are incorrect, the next group to ‘ring’ in gets a chance and so on until a group iscorrect.
- Continue this until you’ve gone through the list of words
The group with the most points at the end wins bragging rights!
