for Potato Day

Objective:
The students will participate in Potato Games and develop their own game involving a potato.



Materials

  • 4-5 Potatoes

  • Music

  • Burlap sacks or pillow cases

Procedure

  1. Play two common "Potato Games" with the students.  Use the potato and the music to play a game of Hot Potato.  Use the sacks to have Potato Sack Races.

  2. Once the class has participated in the Potato Games, divide them into small groups.  Give each group a potato and a sack.  Allow them time to create their own Potato Game.

  3. Have the groups share their developed game with the rest of the class.
