Description

This game is a variation of the “BeanGame” using different motions for different sources of energy.

Resources

None

Instructions

For this activity you need a big room or outside space and designate one person to be the caller. Begin by walking or jogging around the area. The caller says one of the energy sources, and then all of the players take the appropriate action:
- Coal – curl up in a ball on the floor
-Hydro – run around being a river/backwards and forwards being a wave (can do both depending on age)
- Solar – sunbathe
- Gas – hold nose
- Nuclear – cross arms in front of you and ”vibrate” around room
- Geothermal – crouch down and warm hands on floor
- Biofuel – pretend to be a plant/a cow
- Wind- whirl arms around like a turbine.
Be creative and make up additional rules after everyone learns the basic motions. After playing the game see how many can name all the sources.
This could be extended to a discussion about renewable/non-renewable resources and advantages and disadvantages, with players having to choose a motion that is the correct answer.
