Today is Tuesday, which means it is time for Tuesday’s Game of the Week! This week’s game is entitled, Name That Nerd.
Under most circumstances, we simply explain a game to you, but today is your lucky day because we’re giving you this one!
[slideshare id=15364657&doc=namethatnerd-121127021829-phpapp01]If you would like to use this game directly from PowerPoint, you can do so here:Â Name That Nerd PowerPoint Game.
Once you have the file open, you can play one of two ways:
1. Let students guess as individuals just for fun. You won’t need to keep track for this.
2. Divide your group into groups or sections and have them work together as a team. If you decide to go this route, keep in mind that there is a tie-breaker at the end that you may need to use. This question is not only about answering correctly, but it is also about speed. The first team to answer correctly wins!
This is one of the games taken from our Nerd Night, in which we played a few fun games, had students dress up like nerds and shared a message centered on salvation with all the students. I have to say that our students got really into this. We still have some of the pictures from the night hanging in our youth room at church.
So embrace your inner (or outer) nerd and get ready to have a good laugh with this quick and easy game you can integrate into this week’s youth meeting. Good luck and let me know how it goes!!
BONUS TIPS
1. Add your own nerds to game to bring it up to date with people more well known by your group.
2. Give away some fun nerd glasses to the winner!
