Kiwi Can

L.I: To be patient

For kiwi Can we learnt how to be patient. We play 3 different games to see how patient we can be. Our first game was called "Snap and escape". To play our first game is to put one hand flat and place to fingers on the other persons flat hand. We have to say a word and tell a story. When they say the key word. They have to take off their 2 fingers and try and catch the other person finger. Our next game is called " Pass it on". To play the person has to squeeze both shoulders of each team. We have to squeeze each others shoulder until the last person in the front. When the last person gets squeezed has to go and get the cone. If we squeezed when they didn't squeezed us then that's a point to the other team. Team with most points win. Our final game was called " End of the road ". To play we have to answer questions if we get it right the other opponent sits down. If the last person gets it right then the team wins. The only rules are you cannot help your teammate.
