In order to help prepare students for their Final Exams, the SLO® organized the first ever Mustang Games for grades 3 to 8. These games aim to test the students' knowledge in core subjects such as Math, English, Science and Social Studies.
These games consisted of 3 rounds. In the first and third rounds, 5 randomly selected students represented their class in an academic challenge consisting of questions from the Final Revision packets. Contestants have three lifelines:
- Call a Friend
- Call a Teacher
- Ask the Class (to keep the entire class engaged)
The second round consisted of physical challenges such as balancing chocolate cakes on forehead to test balance and concentration.
