Games and competitions for grades 7, 8, 9

Generals of the world

For this competition, the presenter (teacher) prepares either portraits or a little more complex descriptions of the great commanders of the world, for example, a commander with the surname of Salata (Caesar); a commander who was called a genius (Napoleon); the commander who conquered and conquered everything reached Asia (Macedonian); a commander who became the National Hero of Russia and the harsh surname did not bother him (Suvorov) and so on. The presenter makes a guess, and the guys guess. Whoever guessed the most is recognized as the best expert on military leaders and receives a prize.

By country and island

The class guys are divided into teams with the same number of people, approximately 3-4 participants. Each team receives a task sheet with pictures (they can be printed or drawn) of flags of different countries and islands of the world. Opposite each picture is written the first letter of the name of the country or island and then dots that correspond to the number of remaining letters that need to be entered. At the “start” command, the teams begin to familiarize themselves with the flags and guess the countries and islands. And the first letters will help even if you are seeing the flag for the first time (you can guess the letters by the letters). The team that is the first to correctly enter all the countries and islands on their task sheet will be the winner and receive a prize.

Fast mathematicians

The presenter will give commands, and the team members, having completed the mathematical commands in their heads, will quickly answer. The guys are divided into teams of equal numbers. The leader sets the rhythm of the game, and the teams take turns responding. For an incorrect answer, the participant is eliminated. If the team takes too long to think, the member also leaves the team. So, the leader calls any number, for example, 5. Then he turns to the first team and gives the command “multiply by 2”, the team gives the answer, then the leader turns to the second team and gives the command “subtract 4”, the command is from the resulting number after the previous action performs this action and gives a response, and so on. You need to answer quickly and correctly, otherwise you won’t win.

For this game, you can use a small ball or make a “snowball” out of cotton wool. The participants of the game stand in a circle and pass a “snowball” around the circle. At the same time they say:

We all roll a snowball, We all count to five. One-two-three-four-five - You should sing a song!

Whoever has a “snowball” on the last phrase fulfills this wish. The last phrase can be changed: “And read poetry to you!”, “Let’s dance for you!”, “Tell you a fairy tale!” and so on.

"Cooking Competition"

Within a certain time (for example, 5 minutes), the participants in the game must create a New Year's menu. All dishes in it must begin with the letter “N” (New Year). Dishes on the menu for Father Frost should begin with the letter “M”, and for the Snow Maiden - with the letter “S”. The one with the largest menu wins.

“I’ll sing now!”

On New Year's Day, it is customary to sing songs and dance around the Christmas tree. But this activity can be diversified. For example, when the presenter claps, everyone begins to sing the famous song “The little Christmas tree is cold in winter...”. At the second clap, singing aloud stops, but all participants in the game continue to sing to themselves. On the third clap, everyone starts singing out loud again. The one who enters incorrectly is eliminated.

"Fairy-tale character"

Cards are laid out on the table with the names of fairy-tale characters and cartoon characters written on them (with the inscriptions facing down). The participant in the game pulls out any card and, after reading what is written there, must, using facial expressions, gestures, and characteristic sounds, portray this character so that those present understand who they are talking about. The first person to guess pulls out the next card.

"Cinderella"

The game involves two people. Each participant is blindfolded and asked to disassemble his own slide, in which peas, beans, lentils, and dried rowan are mixed (the ingredients can be changed depending on what is in the house). Blindfolded participants sort the fruits into groups. The one who completes the task first wins.

"Mystery Prize"

A small gift (notebook, pen, etc.) is wrapped in paper, onto which a piece of paper with a riddle is glued. Once again they wrap it in paper and again glue the piece of paper with the riddle on it. There can be any number of such layers, it all depends on the number of players. The participant unfolds one layer of paper, reads the riddle to himself and says the answer out loud. Then he unfolds the next layer, reads the riddle again to himself and says the answer. If he doesn't know the answer, he reads the riddle out loud. The first one to solve this riddle unrolls the next layer of paper. The winner is the one who, having solved the last riddle, gets to the gift.

"Mobile phone"

Participants in the game name the numbers in order. Those who get the number 5 or its multiples say “ding-ding.” Those who get the number 7 and its multiples say “ding-diling.” The one who makes a mistake is eliminated from the game.

“Choose a prize!”

Various gifts wrapped in little bags are attached to a long rope. The participant in the game is blindfolded and given scissors. He must cut some gift, which he gets.

"Slipper for Cinderella"

Participants in the game put their shoes in a pile and blindfold themselves. The presenter mixes the shoes into a pile and gives the command: “Find your shoe!” Blindfolded participants need to find their pair of shoes and put on their shoes. Whoever completes the task faster wins.

"Toropyzhki"

For this competition you will need sweet jelly or, for example, halva. The winner is the one who eats the portion offered to him the fastest using a toothpick.

"Riddles"

Each participant in the game has a piece of paper attached to their back with the name of an animal, object, etc. (for example, an elephant, a pen, a pear, an airplane), but so that the players do not know what is written on their pieces of paper. But they can read what is written on others' backs. Participants in the game must ask each other leading questions to find out what is written on their backs. The answers can only be “yes” or “no”. The one who guesses his “name” first is the winner. The game is played until the last person guesses correctly. Everyone receives incentive prizes.

"Sculptors"

This competition is best held outdoors. The presenter names a letter, and the competition participants must fashion any thing out of snow that begins with this letter. Whoever blinds faster and more reliably wins. You can conduct this competition at home using plasticine.

Ebony wand

The guys are divided into several teams with the same number of people. At the same distance from each team there is a chair with pieces of paper in the same quantity). Teams line up in separate rows. At the “start” command, the first participants each take an ebonite stick and forward to the chair with leaves, rub the stick along the way, generating electricity, run to their chair and, using the stick, lift one piece of leaf, put it in their hand and run back to their team, passing the baton to the second participants. The team that transfers all the pieces of paper using an ebonite stick faster than its opponents will be the winner.

Exact sciences

The guys are divided into teams of 4 people. At the command of the leader, the first 4 participants (one participant from each team) come to the board, divided into 4 parts. The leader notes the time and gives the command “start”, names the subject of exact science, for example, Physics, and the first team members begin to write symbols from the field of this subject (force, energy, mass, acceleration, etc.) with chalk on the board. After a minute has passed, the presenter stops the participants and counts the number of points: one term - one point. Next, the second team members are invited to the board, the leader again gives the command “start” and names the subject - Chemistry, and the guys write designations from this area on the board (any elements that they can remember, volume, density, designations of gas or sediment, and so on) . After a minute has passed, the presenter stops the participants and counts the points, adding these points to the points from the previous stage. Then the third participants take part, who get the subject - Algebra and the fourth participants, who get the subject - Geometry. And the team with the most points after all 4 stages will be the winner.
