This game is similar to Scattegories in that you must name items within a category, however, with 5 Second Rule, you don’t have to use just one letter. I was even able to adjust the number of categories and timer down so it wouldn’t take up too much of our meeting. Then I went to this Online Scattergories Website and shared my screen so everyone could see the categories, letter, and timer at the same time. We played Scattergories via Zoom in a recent staff meeting and had lots of laughs! I asked everyone to grab a pencil and piece of paper. The player who put Squash or Shotput would more likely earn a point! Example – if the category was “Sport” and the letter was S – I would write down soccer, but so would MANY other players. I love playing board games in general – and Scattergories is a favorite! It forces you to think quickly AND creatively – the goal is to come up with words that all begin with the same given letter within a time limit, but the twist is that you only get a point if NO ONE ELSE put that same answer. Here are some ideas I’ve found across the internet that I hope you’ll find useful! Scattergories Staying connected during this difficult time is so important for our students’ and our own mental health! After the first few – “It’s so great to see you” Zoom class or staff meetings, it can be hard to come up with more ideas for bonding and having fun together from a distance. As a staff, we are hanging out in a virtual staff lounge on Zoom and also sharing memes, jokes, and ideas on a staff padlet wall. Teachers are planning weekly class Zoom meetings for team building and culture building. In the same way, while I want to meet the work needs of my staff members, I also want to ensure that we stay connected as a staff and continue to grow and build our culture – even remotely. On my campus, while we are working hard to meet the academic needs of students remotely, we are also focused on ensuring that students still feel connected to their teacher and their classmates.
