Cards, 4 Question Cards, chips/markers
Directions: (This game is played like Headbandz)

“headbands” out of sentence strips. Put one paper clip
on each headband. Each player puts on a Headband.
2.  Players flip over shape cards without looking and
attaches the card to their headband using the paper clip.
3.  Players play in a clockwise manner by asking one
question on their question card at a time about their

chip/marker and put a new card on their headband.
