Have one student at a time come up to the interactive whiteboard to choose a feature to add to the monster and answer a question. Each game board has 20 body features. After all of the features have been added to the monster, the class will have created a fun and silly monster. Each time you play, the resulting monster will be unique and the questions will randomize so the game is always unique and fun.
Small group or single player – Played on tablets or computer workstations (PC or Mac)
Start the game on a computer or tablet and allow the student(s) to play for a certain length of time. Tablets and computers can remain logged in to the student view so that students can easily pick their group or student picture and play a game.
Individual student at home while distance learning - Students can play their assigned games at home using the “Student Link” that is assigned to your pinkcatgames.com account.
