ESL Game - Pictionary
By:kr
Title: Pictionary
Type: Game
Target: Any vocabulary
Materials: None
Procedure: Students are divided into 2 teams. One person from one team comes
up to the front where the teacher gives them a vocabulary word to draw on the
board. The team tries to guess the word. If they get it correct the team gets one
point. Teams alternate turns and the team with the most points wins.
Comments: If the words are easy to guess you can make it harder by limiting
the time to draw, limiting the time the students have to guess, limiting the
number of guesses and having the team say the answer together in unison.
