What’s the Word?

A game to Practise RelativeSentences and Paraphrasing

www.cristinacabal.com

How we play the game:

• Divide the class into two teams • Ask a member of Team A to sit on chair with his back to the

whiteboard. • Display the first word on the screen • The members of the team have two minutes to describe the word

but they cannot use any parts of the words on the screen. Forexample if it is "teacher" they cannot use the word "teach". The aimis for the student to guess as many words as possible in twominutes. Every word in black scores one point , the ones in redscore two points.

• Then , it is the other team's turn to choose someone to take the hot seat.

• Needless to say , you keep the score on the board for everybody to see. Have fun!!!
