The running dictation is an active game for several competing teams.

Equipment

  • each team requires pen and paper
  • you can also add obstacles to the running track.

Procedure

The groups are standing next to each other at the starting position. On the other end of the track, the trainers are standing, one for each of the teams.

Then, one member of each team is running to the other end. There, the trainer tells him one word of the text. The player returns to his team, and they note the word. The next player of the team may start to run (and to get he next word) once the first player has returned.

Which team is the first to collect their whole text?
