Hangman

Materials:

  • Pencil and Paper

Setup:

One player draws an empty gallows and thinks of a word. They draw one line for each letter of the word below.

To Play:

The other player tries to figure out what the word is by guessing one letter at a time. If they guess correctly, the first player fills in the letter in the appropriate space. If incorrect, they fill in one body part of the gallows. If the player guesses what the word is before the entire figure is filled in, they win.
