SUGAR GAME – HIGHER OR LOWER Key Stage 2 – Year 5/6<br>
02
How to play This game is similar to the TV game “higher or lower”. It’s designed to get children thinking about the amount of sugar cubes can be found in some of their favourite items.
This is a KEY STAGE TWO - YEAR 5/6 edition.
The aim of the game is to state whether they think the item has more or less sugar cubes than the previous one, make a guess at the number of cubes and then give a healthy suggestion to replace it.
The game can be played in many ways, we encourage you to get the pupils moving – the next slide will explain the ways to play it.<br>
03
Using commands: choose 2 commands, one for higher and one for lower. Pupils perform that command if they think the item has more or less sugar cubes that the previous one, (e.g. stars jumps = higher, jogging on the spot = lower).
Using movement: in your space, pick a side to be higher and one to be lower. Pupils move to the side they think they answer is.
To guess the number of sugar cubes: you can form groups of those numbers, collect equipment of that value, or use multi-link cubes
These way can be played in a classroom, sports hall or outside. If you can think of other ways, then play them ☺<br>

Also remember to move and have fun – go and play with your friends or have a dance party with your family.
Most importantly smile and BE KIND!<br>
