Game description
Bevor you begin, divide the group into two teams. The task for the two team will be to estimate the size of different objects. When that is done, and everything is written down neatly, they are going to measure those objects with a ruler. Another option would be; the team leader asks the kids several questions relating to the size of objects. For example, what would be the width of three tables next to each other? What’s the height of 10 dictionaries stacked on top pf each other? Both, evaluation and real size are correctly recorded.
Judging
For each object, the team which got the closest to the actual size receives a point.
