I have, who has... is a fun game which involves all the students. Begin the game by having one player read their "Who has" question aloud (from Start card). Each player should examine their cards carefully. The player holding the correct answer responds by stating their "I have" answer, then presents their own "Who has" question. Keep the game going until the sequence ends with Stop card.

This Review game covers concepts studied in Unit#5 Managing resources, all three sections.

The document has 36 cards, perfect for large classes. If you have less than 36 students in one class (I hope you do!), you can have some students have two cards. My students love this game, and I always have volunteers to take more than one card.
