Greetings PE Nation!
Don't be scared! Tower of Terror is a strategic PE game featuring bucket stacking with scooters, blindfolds, and teamwork despite its scary-sounding name. The game builds from simple scooter relays to complex strategic challenges where teams must decide between building their tower and attempting to knock down opponents' structures.
• Teams of 4-5 students use scooters to transport buckets and build pyramid structures
• Round one involves basic bucket transport and stacking
• Round two adds a "driver" who pushes the scooter rider
• Round three incorporates blindfolds for the drivers with verbal guidance from riders
• Round four turns the activity into a competitive race
• Round five introduces Gatorskin balls that blindfolded players can throw to knock down opposing towers
• Color-coding buckets and equipment helps with organization
• Students rotate positions throughout the game for maximum participation
• Safety with blindfolds must be emphasized before and during play
