Easy morning work or a fun activity for early finishers, the Dots and Boxes game is easy to learn and requires only a partner and a pencil to play. Give each student a booklet at the beginning of the year and they’ll always have something purposeful to do when they finish their other work. The game itself requires strategic thinking and back and forth turn taking. It’s simple enough for 1st grade and fun enough for middle school!

The booklets were thoughtfully designed to be easy for teachers to prepare. Simply print, fold, and staple. No rearranging or cutting pages because who has time for that? Game instructions are on the back of the booklet so students will never forget how to play. For a little extra fun, students will love coloring the Dot Dudes on each page. Perfect for the first week of school and beyond!

This OOPS Card Version can be played in any class but can also be used for ESL classes.

INCLUSIONS:

• Teacher Guide
• Email Support
• Four (4) pages of OOPS Cards (9 cards per page - a total of 36 cards)

Objective:
The objective of the game "Oops" is to get your teammates to guess a word without using certain pre-defined words or phrases associated with it - these are called "Oopsies"

Gameplay:

1. The clue giver draws a card from the deck, revealing the mystery word and its associated oopsies (taboo words).
2. The clue giver must describe the word without using any of the "oopsies" listed on the card.
3. The clue giver's teammates try to guess the word based on the clues given.
4. The clue giver can use any verbal clues or gestures but must avoid the "oopsies" at all costs.
5. The clue giver's teammates can make as many guesses as they want within a time limit (usually one minute).
6. If a teammate guesses the word correctly, the team earns a point. If the clue giver uses an "oopsie," they forfeit a point.
7. After the time is up or the word is correctly guessed, play passes to the next team.
8. Play continues back and forth until all players have had a turn as the clue giver or a set number of rounds has been completed.
9. The team with the most number of points wins.

This FREE version is a non-editable ready-to-print version of OOPS.
