This is a great class for students who want more play time after class, social time, or just a great palette cleanser for a positive day! MASH stands for “Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House,” and is a simple game that lets kids use their imaginations and see funny predictions about their future! MASH is a fun, pretend game where students imagine their future by randomly picking silly life options in different categories like ‘Where you’ll live,’ ‘What job you’ll have,’ or ‘Who your pet will be.’ Here’s how the class will run: 🍭Class starts with a quick game of Two Truths and One Lie using fun facts about the world and animals. 🍭Then, the teacher will reveal the week's four game categories. Each week the MASH game categories will be a new mix - some old, some new. 🍭Taking turns, each student can add an idea to a category - they can be silly or realistic! 🍭Once all categories have been filled, we click the magic number spinner! This will give us our magic number to count and eliminate all but one item in each category. 🍭Finally, the teacher will read out our predicted futures! They are usually pretty funny and everyone laughs about their silly future. Students are welcome to suggest their own category ideas for future game weeks!
