Sink the other team before they sink you with Sink or Swim!

Sink or Swim is a No Prep math review game where students answer correctly to sink the other team, but if they get the answer wrong, they sink themselves!

The game is playable with the whole class together, or you can play it as small groups. All questions and answers are included. This version is Grade 6 Math, Variability in a Data Set. It is a digital resource, no printouts required.

How It Works:

• The game runs in PowerPoint, and you can edit the questions and answers if you like.
• Make 3 teams, and take turns answering questions.
• Check the answer given against the answer, which is shown on the next slide.
• If correct, the team gets to sink one member of another team by tapping SINK.
• If incorrect, the team sinks one of their own team by tapping SINK.
• Once a team is sunk, they can rescue a player by answering one of the Rescue Questions.
• If they answer the Rescue Question correctly, tap SWIM and they get to sink another player.
• The game is over once there is only one team left floating.
• Questions vary in difficulty and the answer is provided after each question.
