Welcome to the wonderful world of Hooky. Of the 26 children in classes today, 3 are off playing hooky. It is morning before school starts, and in the chaos, your job as a homeroom teacher is to figure out which 3 are missing. There are some children off in the Playground who are late getting to their homerooms, and you will learn their identities as they straggle in. The 3 missing students are represented by 3 Hooky cards. You earn points by correctly deducing the identity of the 3 Hooky cards and thereby finding the 3 missing students. You can also earn points by learning which students are in the other players’ classrooms (hands of cards). The player with the highest score at the end wins the game.
