Hey there! Thanks for the game. What's a good ratio of students in each section?
I tried this out today and this game was a lot of fun. I selected a few of the dragons to be "fire breathing dragons". These students were given a pool noodle and tried to tag the soldiers who were close to the outside. If a soldier was tagged they would have to become a prisoner.
For a class of 25, I started with 7 prisoners, 3 fire breathing dragons, and 7 regular dragons. The rest were prisoners. Those numbers are definitely flexible depending on the needs/ages of the students.
