Poem Race

Source: School, Church, and Home Games
Category: SCHOOLROOM GAMES For Intermediate Pupils





The pupils having learned some poem may use it in a game in the
following way:

The pupils of each aisle constitute a team. At the signal to go the
last pupil in each aisle stands up and recites the first line of the
poem, returns to his seat and taps the one next in front of him, who
stands up and repeats the second line of the poem, sits down and taps
off the third pupil, who repeats the third line, and so the game
continues. If the poem has not been completed after the one in the
front seat has said his line, he taps the one next behind him, and that
one is supposed to give the next line and so on back. The aisle first
completing a poem wins the race.

If the poem be a very small one, words of the poem instead of lines may
be used. If it be a long one, verses instead of lines may be used.
