Tension!
I got this great game for Christmas and it can be easily adapted to play in the classroom. Divide the class into three groups and give each groups a different set of cards with topics on. They have to write ten words associated with that topic. Then, group A reads out their topic and B and C have one minute to shout out as many words associated with that topic as possible…but only the ones on the card count. Group A need to keep track of which team says each word and at the end of the round, add up the scores.
It’s a great way to practise vocabulary and you can vary the topics according to level. Here are some ideas:
- fruit
- animals
- things which are red
- verbs beginning with s
- British cities
- American actresses
- things with four legs
- at the beach
- phrasal verbs related to crime
Ah yes had forgotten this, hours of fun one christmas holiday night. Will use it today. Nice one T.
And you did it at the conference of course 😉
