Numbered Heads Together

Teams number off, put their heads together on an answer, and any number might get called to answer for the team.

Make it yours: Any question works — the accountability mechanic, where anyone might get called, is what makes it stick.

How to play

1. Split into small teams and have each student number off (1, 2, 3, 4...).
2. Ask a question and give teams time to discuss until every teammate can explain the answer.
3. Call a number — only students with that number may answer for their team.
4. Award points for correct answers and rotate through numbers across the game.
