Dumb-charades -  2:30-3:30

Divide 100 people in 2 parts agewise
1) Group 1:- 12-16years
2) Group 2:-17-25 years

Group 1, around 50-60 people
Group 2, around 40-50 people

Group 1, easy and latest movies only ( Childrem would be able to guess them only)
Group 2, can have older movies as well with some difficulty

Divide each group in further subgroups having 5-6 members (depending upon the number of candidates)
The groups will remain same for all the rounds.

Thus total 20 Subgroups (10 below 17 and 10 above 17)

We will run this parallel in 4 classrooms (5 subgroups of same category in each room)

The game will have 3 rounds, ( 2 cycles in each round)

Round 1:-

Normal Dumb Charades ( 1 will Enact and rest team members will guess)
1 minute will be given to each team. 
5 teams ( 5 minutes to enact , 5 minutes to organize each cycle) Thus Round 1, 20 minutes

Round 2:-

Black Board Round ( 1 will draw and rest team members will guess)
5 teams , 1:30 minutes for each team and 5 minutes per cycle . Thus Round 2, 20-25 min

Round 3:- 

Mirror image (1 person will enact , 1 will mirror him , rest will guess)
5 teams , 1:30 minutes for each team and 5 minutes per cycle . Thus Round 2, 20-25 min 

Note:- 1 minute and 1:30 minutes are the fixed time duration , no team will be given team would be given more than this time to enact o guess.

And that's it.
To save time , we can either reduce the number of teams by increasing the team members or cut the first round.

Else its fine

Apparatus required:-
1) Only Chalk and duster if blockborad will be provided
Else
2) White board , marker and duster

i also think that we should scrap the first round and increase the guessing time as some children might find 1 min less
