Oui!

Teams:

No

Equipment:

Online version only - coloured or numbered paper

Encourages students to use their voices at a given time. Allows them to be loud in class.

Students stand in a circle with their heads down. 

When the teacher says, “Look up,” all the students look up at someone in the circle. 

If that person is looking back at you then you both yell out, “Oui!” 

The teacher will tell you to put your head down and the process will be repeated. 


Variations

  • The first to say Oui within a pair is  the survivor, the other person is out. If it is a tie, the loudest wins. Honesty is needed with this game.

  • Instead of being out, the two students exchange places within the circle. They may have to cross the circle moving in a manner the teacher has indicated. 

  • Instead of Oui maybe it is another sound, like that of an animal. 


Online

Students can have a range of coloured paper, or they have numbers written on separate pieces of paper. 

The teacher can count to three. On three all students hold up one of the colours or numbers. 

If you see someone holding up the same number then you yell out, Oui!” 

Or perhaps you could call out the colour or number. 


  • If using numbers, maybe combinations to 10. The students call out if they see someone who has a number that matches theirs to make 10.
