“What are the odds?” is a really fun game you can play with your students.

Here’s how to do it:

You get two students to face off.

Contestant one will ask contestant two what the odds are that he will complete a dare. For instance, “What are the odds that you post a duck face selfie to your Instagram story.”

Contestant two will pick a number based on the severity of the dare and so he might say, “One in 7.” (or no big deal, 1 in 3) was

Then the two contestants will agree, shake hands, and begin to count down 3,2,1 and then say a random number between 1 and 7. If the numbers match then contestant two must complete the dare. If the numbers add up to 7 (i.e. one contestant says 3 and the other 4) then contestant one must complete the dare. And if the numbers do not match or add up then they both breathe a sigh of relief and move on.

This game can continue as long as you want and as long as contestants come up with dares.
