Ashley22, no problem here is how I play the game with my students.
It is a group writing game and you play with 1 small white board per team (at least I do).
The students are put into teams of 4 and assigned a number 1-4.
They "go to sleep" which just means heads down, eyes closes and then you call student by student to "wake up"
So you say, Student 1 wake up, then only students who are number 1 look up sees the word and then put their heads down. Then student 2 wake up, only those students looks up and sees the word then puts their head down. And so on.
When you have had all four students look up, then everyone wakes up. The students must talk together to figure out the sentence using the parts that only they saw. They write it on the whiteboard and then raise it for teacher to see.
They way I do it is that the first 3 teams to raise it up and have it written correctly (the words in the right order and correct capitalization and punctuation) get 2 points and the rest get 1 point.
Then they all go back to sleep for the next one and it repeats itself.
This is how I have learned to play it and how my kids know but I am sure other people have different ways of doing it to. Just whatever works best for you and your students.
