When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!

1. Key Words
2. Bible Quotes
3. Relationships
4. Life and Death
5. Good and Evil
6. Human Rights
Take it in turns to roll the dice and move either yourself or a space-saver around the board game. (A space saver can be anything – a small object like a highlighter pen, or a rubber!) Move the number of spaces on the dice in any direction. When you land on a space, answer the same-coloured question correctly to collect the token!
When you have collected all tokens, make your way towards the centre of the board and answer the 'Making Lemonade' question to successfully make the lemonade and win the game!
An imaginative and energising game centred around any topic of your choice! The game is ready to go - all you need to do is print!
The download comes complete with the board spaces, 35 question cards (210 questions and answers in total), instructions and tokens.. all you need is a thirst for knowledge and a legendary sense of fun.
The board itself is set up in the shape of a large circle, with a cross-section, where learners can get to the middle 'Making Lemonade' space. You will need floor space for this! There is nothing more symbolic or exciting to learners than asking them to get rid of the tables, chairs and pens for a lesson! Please see the images for more guidance on how to set up the board.
Any hints, tips or otherwise are more than welcome, after all, that's what the education world is about!
