He must stand in the far corner of the room (class) at such a distance to see and hear all the participants. The remaining children are divided into two groups. The master informs them of the riddle and distributes among them the syllables that make up the word. In the beginning, you need to use simple words consisting of two open syllables. The guys start to perform a prepared song, but only using their part of the word, for example, “Me” and “Ta” or “Ka” and “Sha”.
