3. Break into groups of 3-4 and get a dice. Make sure everyone has something to write with and a piece of paper.
4. Choose an order to go in.
5. Player 1 draws a card and places it so everyone can see and then rolls the dice (if you roll a six, re-roll).
6. Everyone does the corresponding task (see the picture above to the right).
7. The first person done gets one point for finishing and one point for a correct response.
8. Repeat.
