Prepare cards that have 5 English words on them or 5 Japanese (or the local language) words. In rows, students compete to finish the most translation cards. The first person in the row goes to the teacher s desk and picks up a card. She translates the first word on the card and writes it down on her team s paper. She hands the card and the paper back to the person behind her. He translates the next word, and so on. The student who finishes the last word brings the card up to the teacher and takes another one. The card gets handed to the next person in the row to continue translating. The team that translates the most cards within the time limit wins.
