Writing – Lockdown games

TASK 1: Read the information below and write down some of your own thoughts

and feelings on this topic.

TASK 2: Look at the resource below. Create a mind map in your home learning

jotter to show the different games you can play at home. Think of a way to

highlight the games you have played during lockdown – you could colour code,

underline or highlight these. I have done an example mind map below.

TASK 3: Design and make your very own board game!

Think about:

• What will you call your game?

• What will be the object of the game?

• How many people can play?

• What rules will you have?

• What will the design of your game be like? Shape? Size? Colour?

• What materials or resources will you need to make your game?

Make your game. You could draw out your board on paper or card or use your

computer and print it out. Don’t forget to make other parts of your game such

as cards or counters. Once it is complete, test it out with someone in your home.

You could even write an evaluation thinking about what was good and what could

be improved.

TASK 4: Instructions for your board game.

Some of the games we play come with a set of instructions and rules to explain

the aim of the game and tell us how to play it. Create a set of instructions for

the board game you created in option 2!

You will need to include the following:

• A title

• Introduction/aim of the game

• List of equipment/resources needed

• Step by step instructions – you could number these

Plan your instructions first, thinking about how you will organise your ideas. You

could use the ‘Game Instructions Plan’ to help you to do this. Once you have

created your instructions, see if someone in your home can follow them to play

your game!
