GAMES: Wolf’s Dinner Time

Materials:


        Outdoor play area or large indoor area


How to Play:
·         One player becomes the wolf and he/she will stand with his/her back turned to the others about 15 feet from the others. The others call out, "Whats the time Mr. Wolf" and the wolf turns to face the others and shouts out a time. Eg: 9 o'clock. The others would then take 9 steps toward the wolf. The group will take the same amount of steps toward the wolf as the amount of hours in the wolfs time. eg, 4 o'clock = 4 steps, 6 o'clock = 6 steps etc. etc. The wolf will then turn his back to the group again for them to yell "whats the time...." (He looks at the group only when he shouts the time at the group").
·         When the group comes close to the wolf the next time the group yells "whats the time Mr. Wolf" the wolf will say 'Its DINNER TIME" and run after the group who are running back to the start line, and hopefully catch one of the group who will then be the wolf. It sounds noisy, but is an interesting game.

GAMES: Lava Rock

Materials:


        Rock
        Music
How to Play:
Have the Cubs sit in a circle. Start the music and have them pass the ‘lava’ rock as though it were molten lava. When the music stops, the Cub who is holding the ‘lava’ leaves the circle. Go until there is only one Cub left!


THEME ACTIVITY: Rock Collection

Materials Needed:
q  Foam board
q  Glue gun and glue sticks
q  Black marking pen
q  Information on rocks for categorizing
q  Rock Collection



Have the boys sort their rocks into 4-6 different groups on the table. Sort rocks according to color, size, texture or element. Have them glue their rocks to the foam board provided to display their collection. Give each boy 1 minute to explain to the pack why he organized his collection the way he did.




BADGEWORK: Law Awareness


What rules should we have in our pack? What might happen if we didn't have rules?
Who makes the laws in our country? Why are these laws important to you?
Who is responsible for making sure that these laws are followed? Who can you ask for help if you see a law being broken?


THEME ACTIVITY: Water Cycle

Materials Needed:



q  Watercycle diagram
q  River Basin diagram and information for our area
q  Alberta map
q  a large metal or plastic bowl
q  a pitcher or bucket
q  a sheet of clear plastic wrap
q  a dry ceramic mug (like a coffee mug)
q  a long piece of string or large rubber band
q  water


Put the bowl in a sunny place outside.

Using the pitcher or bucket, pour water into the bowl until it is about ¼ full.
Place the mug in the center of the bowl. Be careful not to splash any water into it.
Cover the top of the bowl tightly with the plastic wrap.
Tie the string around the bowl to hold the plastic wrap in place.
Watch the bowl to see what happens.
The "mist" that forms on the plastic wrap will change into larger drops of water that will begin to drip. (You can speed up the dripping by carefully moving the bowl – don't splash! – into the shade.) When this happens, continue watching for a few minutes, and then carefully peel back the plastic. Is the coffee mug still empty? Water from the "ocean" of water in the bowl evaporated. It condensed to form misty "clouds" on the plastic wrap. When the clouds became saturated it "rained" into the mug!

 south Saskatchewan river basin • The South Saskatchewan River basin includes the sub-basins of the bow, red Deer, Oldman, and south Saskatchewan river basins. All of the sub-basins begin in the Rocky Mountains, generally flowing eastward through the foothills and prairie. the combined area of the sub-basins is 121,095 km2, of which 41 per cent comes from the red Deer, 22 per cent the Oldman, 21 per cent the bow, and 16 per cent the South Saskatchewan. Major urban centers in the basin include Calgary, Lethbridge, red Deer, and Medicine Hat. All of the province’s thirteen irrigation districts are found in the South Saskatchewan River basin. The mean annual discharge from the basin into Saskatchewan is 9,280,000,000 m3
