Lollipop Nouns A Homemade PowerPoint Game By Cameron King Evans Elementary Play the game Game Directions Story Credits Copyright Notice Game Preparation Objectives Game Pieces
The Story of Lollipop Nouns The lollipops are taking a trip to Lollipop Land for the Candy Festival. To make it there, they will need to get to the finish line of the Lollipop Trail. To move along the Lollipop Trail they will test their knowledge of nouns and proper nouns. Will they make it to the Candy Festival? Home Page
Game Directions The goal of the game is to list as many common nouns or proper nouns as possible per round in 30 seconds (optional). To play the game you will have to take turns. Each person will spin both wheels to select a noun to use (common noun or proper noun) and the kind of noun (person, place, or thing). If you land on “YOU CHOOSE” you decide what kind of noun (person, place, or thing) When both categories are chosen, each team member will be given 30 seconds (more time can be given) to list as many nouns in that category using the Noun List as possible. For each noun listed correctly, the person will move that many times on the Lollipop Trail. Special Notes No nouns should be listed twice in any category or any round. If so, no credit will be given for the doubled noun. A new list (A, B, C, etc.) should be used per round. Do not use the same noun list for multiple rounds. To win the game you will need to make it to the finish line first. Recommendations Use a colored printer if possible to print the material This game should be played with no more than 5 in a group.
