Game Adaptations

This past week for Lab we were looking at different games that elementary children actually like to play with. We were actually able to play with some of these games and get an idea of what younger children these days like to play with. The game that I looked at that I would modify is called stackers. Stackers is just what it sounds you stack cups in a pyramid shape and see how fast you can do it. The way I would modify this game or change it is to use bigger or smaller cups for the children to use based on their ablities. The smaller cups would actually be easier for younger children because they have small hands. I think this might make it easier for the children to use. The next thing you could do is actually spread the stacks out so the students had to run a little ways to stack them, this way they could get their heartrate up a little.
