20 Tree Questions
|
|
Before trying this game read the preceding Game of Twenty Questions. As he leaves the group the questioner might say, "While I am out of hearing select a tree. I'll try to name it by asking no more than twenty questions. If I ask more than twenty, you win. Select a tree and discuss it with your leader, and when you're ready, call me." The DiscussionBefore the tree is selected the leader tells the Scouts to answer all questions by saying, "Yes, no, or I don't know." The players will listen attentively and will take time to discuss the tree when they learn that every time they answer incorrectly or give an "I don't know," answer that question will not count against the questioner. Questioner May Use BookThe Questioner asks questions somewhat as indicated in the key questions below, which cover many broad-leaved trees. The wise leader keeps the Scouts in suspense and tries to use all of his twenty questions to determine the tree. Key Questions
By this time the questioner will have a rather definite idea of what the tree is so that he can frame his remaining questions to clinch the answer on his twentieth question. TipYou will realize, of course, that this is a Scout Way for instructors, though you may hesitate to use it because you consider your knowledge of trees too limited. If so, get some one familiar with trees to read the description of the game and then try it. |
