Simon Says
From Mie Guidebook
Time
5-15 min
Materials
An arm's length radius of space around each student to make sure they don't run into each other while doing gestures (though inevitably they will)
Directions
Like the traditional game and a more difficult version of the gesture game, students stand up and attempt to follow the directions from the teacher. If 'Simon Says' is said before the command, students follow the directions. If it is not said, they remain still and do not do the gesture. If they move, they are out and have to sit down. Continue playing until one person is the winner.
If students are doing well and no one is making mistakes, go faster to confuse them.
