A QUICK LOOK AT KNOCKOUT™ & HOW IT IS PLAYED
1 – Divide your class into 2 single file lines
2 – Display the first slide
3 – The player at the front of his/her line faces off against the player from the other team: the first player to answer his/her question correctly wins and returns to the end of the line!
4 – The player who does not win goes to sit on the team “bench” to cheer on the team!
✋ BUT WAIT: That’s not all.
If a player faces these slides, the following could happen:
✅ Double Free Pass: Both players automatically get to stay in the game!
✅ Double Knockout™: Both players are automatically out!
✅ Knockout™/Free Pass: One player leaves, one stays!
✅ Pick a Pal: Choose a player from the bench to return to the game!
