Pass The Buck Game
May 30, 2008
Adapted from a post on Dave’s ESL Cafe
- Everyone gets 25 one-dollar bills
- The teacher asks each student a question from lessons previously taught, such as “What am I wearing?,” “What color is my hair?”
- If the student answers correctly, everyone must give that student a dollar
- If the student answers incorrectly, that student must give each and every other student one dollar
- Students with zero dollars can still participate and win money if they correctly answer a question
- Questions can be about spelling, Galileo, names of classmates, names of objects, etc.
- Student with the most money at the end gets a special treat
