About this template

In this festive template, students will build a delightful snowman step by step while guessing a secret word. Will you figure out the word before the snowman is completed? Play to find out!

How to Play

Choose a Word: This game is typically played with one student or the teacher acting as the game master. The game master chooses a word or phrase appropriate for the age and skill level of the students. This word is kept secret from the students.

Start guessing: Students take turns guessing letters they think might be in the word. Each correct guess reveals the letter in its position(s) in the word.

  • For each incorrect guess, a part of the snowman is drawn.
  • The drawing starts with the basic snowball body and progresses with features like the face, hat, arms, and scarf.
  • The objective is to guess the word before the snowman is completely built.

Winning the game: The game ends when either the snowman is completed (the game master wins) or if the entire word is guessed before the snowman is completely built (the students win). Have fun!
