How to play SCOOT!

• First of all, I have to say that my students and I love SCOOT! It’s an easy way to keep kids engaged in learning.

• In order to play, I generally move student desks in a rectangular pattern –but do what works best for you without too much interruption.

• Place one card face down on each desk, and have students stand behind the desk with their pencil and answer sheet.

• When you say, “begin,” students flip over the card, write their answer down, and then flip the card back upside down on the desk.

• Allow students about 30 seconds or so and then say, “SCOOT!”

• Students will move one desk down and answer the question. Repeat until the game is finished!

• You can also use these cards as an assessment, a center, homework, etc.

• If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at lovelearningtpt@yahoo.com
