Real Hangman

Gone are the days when a relief teacher can spend time 'connecting' with her class, so to speak.  Mostly, we have only 5 mins to get the roll completed, then alas a 'new' class is created, and that combination will, possibly not be seen again.  So, when I do have the time, I consider myself very lucky, and we play hangman.

Kids love playing hangman.
I make it ‘purposeful’ hangman
 
What is my name?  Hangman
 
- -   - - - - - - -    Ms Harmony
 
The two letters at front is confusing for all..
We spend a little time on learning that one, understanding all the different alternatives
 
Someone has to teach them that, cause no-one seems to know!
 
The harmony bit is fun.  Cause then we talk about what it means????
 
peace
love
joy
unity
 
music
in tune yah!
OUT of tune nah!
If time, fill the board with to overflowing with words

It really gets them thinking ...
 
Oh
Then I add 
- - - -  REAL  (Hangman)
  
I am real
I want real
 
You be real
I will be real
 
Can’t lie
Can’t fib when you are real
 
Let us be honest and real with each other.
 
And, if I am not real, you tell me!
 
And, if you are not real,
 
I will tell you!!!
