Divide the class into groups of 3 or 4 students, print page 2 and 3 for each student and print page 1 once for each group.

Print page 1 and glue it on cardboard; divide the class into groups of 4 students and give one board to each group. Print a set
of places for each group. Student 1 and 2 play against student 3 and 4. Student 1 takes a place and gives directions to
student B (placed in the “start” point with a token). Student 2 follows the directions and tells where he is. Student 1 can’t
look while student 2 follows the directions. If the student 2 is right in front of the same place in the student 1’s paper, they
get one point.
