How to play SCOOT!
• First of all, I have to say that my students and I love SCOOT! It’s an easy way to keep kids engaged in learning.
• In order to play, I generally move student desks in a rectangular pattern –but do what works best for you without too much interruption.
• Place one card face down on each desk, and have students stand behind the desk with their pencil and answer sheet.
• When you say, “begin,” students flip over the card, write their answer down, and then flip the card back upside down on the desk.
• Allow students about 30 seconds or so and then say, “SCOOT!”
• Students will move one desk down and answer the question. Repeat until the game is finished!
• You can also use these cards as an assessment, a center, homework, etc.
• If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected]
