Instructions

If you choose to play as the shark, your goal is to eat the fish. Click the start button to begin the game, and tap your button repeatedly until one of you wins.

Teaching
As an incentive game, students play to save a fish. Each time they answer a question or finish a class task, they get to move the fish. To keep the game exciting, you can occasionally move the shark.
Many kids are eager to tap the board, so I often use this as a variation of rock-paper-scissors. Two students play, and the winner is chosen.
