Pledge & Law Games
Too often Pathfinders memorize the Pathfinder law but don’t
do anything with it after they learn the law. The following two games will
help the law come alive in the Pathfinder’s mind as they play these games.
Game #1
Equipment: For each team, 1 pencil, 1 set of 8 slips of
paper numbered from 1-8
placed in a pile in front of team.
Action:
On signal first Pathfinder runs to pile, draws slip, reads the number,
writes on paper the point of AY law of that number, drops paper beside pile,
runs back to tag next Pathfinder who repeats performance. And so on,
until all 8 slips are answered.
Scoring:
First team finished with most correct answers wins.
Game #2
Equipment: For each team, newspapers or magazines, 1 pair of scissors,
and 1 pencil.
Action:
On signal, teams have 10 minutes to search for news items which illustrate
points of the Pathfinder law lived up to. Items are torn out, trimmed, and
numbered according to number of law.
Scoring:
Team with most clippings in given time wins.
