Ход игры
Класс заранее делится на несколько команд. В каждой команде 4-5 человек. Команда выбирает капитана, придумывает себе название и эмблему. В начале игры команда представляет себя и получает маршрутный лист. В игре задействовано 6 кабинетов – 6 станций: Историческая, Географическая, Архитектурная, Пожарная, Туристическая и Римская.
На каждой станции каждый участник за 5 минут должен ответить на 10 вопросов в тестовом виде. Результат команды быстро подсчитывается членами комиссии на каждой станции (здесь нам помогали старшеклассники, за что им огромное спасибо), вносится в ведомость и выводится средний бал путем деления суммы баллов на количество членов команды. Выигрывает команда, набравшая большее количество баллов. Позже по листам можно подсчитать баллы каждого ученика и поставить отметки.
