Let's have a
review
"DING ANG BATOOO!"
GAME MECHANICS
Get one piece of paper in the box. Some paper
contains a specific word.
The teacher will flash a picture. You need to look
closely to the picture.
If you think that you've got the correct answer
to the given picture, then you have to prepare
to shout "DARNA" once the teacher shouts
"Ding ang bato!
If you fail to shout "DARNA" eventhough you
are holding the right answer, you will therefore
need to perform a special task.
Are you ready?
