3rd Grade Map Skills – 3rd Grade Social Studies – 3rd Grade Geography

Description

Want a fun, high-energy way to teach your 3rd graders map skills? Knockout is the action-packed social studies game that gets students moving, thinking, and learning all at once! In this fast-paced game, they’ll practice using a map key and compass rose—often without even realizing they’re mastering important map skills. The first player to answer correctly can knock others out of the game, bringing an extra spark of friendly competition. Get ready to watch your classroom buzz with excitement as your students dive into the educational fun of Knockout!

A QUICK LOOK AT KNOCKOUT™ & HOW IT IS PLAYED

1 – Divide your class into 2 single file lines

2 – Display the first slide

3 – The player at the front of his/her line faces off against the player from the other team: the first player to answer his/her question correctly wins and returns to the end of the line!

4 – The player who does not win goes to sit on the team “bench” to cheer on the team!

✋ BUT WAIT: That’s not all.

If a player faces these slides, the following could happen:

✅ Double Free Pass: Both players automatically get to stay in the game!

✅ Double Knockout™: Both players are automatically out!

✅ Knockout™/Free Pass: One player leaves, one stays!

✅ Pick a Pal: Choose a player from the bench to return to the game!
