The chocolate game

WOW! have you ever played the Chocolate game? In Room 8 we played the Chocolate game it was fun.We heard that we were going to play the Chocolate game. things you need are a dice,chocolate, a plate knife and fork and clothes.


This is how to play the Chocolate game. You need lots of players so it can be funny. You need items in the middle so 1 piece of clothing and 5 accessories. If a person rolls a 6  He or she has to go in the middle and dress up. But If a person rolls a 6 when you're still dressing up you have to get un dressed and go back and sit back in the circle.


After we got in a circle well Mrs Lavakula put the chocolate and clothes in the middle of the circle. When Mrs Lavakula was done we started the person rolled the dice. The first person that rolled a 6 was I think was Emmanuel he got dressed but Tavake rolled a 6. When i rolled i got a 1 the dice was going around the circle then Alex got it and he got a 6 and he dressed up and he almost cut a chocolate.

While we were playing the game there was lots of giggling and noise. Mrs
Lavakula was videoing it. It was soo funny when people were dressing up. Some boys wore the tutu. They looked funny in it.Some boys even put on the coconut shell cups they looked really girly. There was lot of laughing. The only people that got some chocolate was Montel and Dezarae.


My favorite part was when everyone was dressing up because everyone looked funny. I liked how all of of our class was laughing and they enjoyed it. It was so cool playing that game.
