Steps

Cut and laminate playing cards up front

Define 2 teams that will take turns.

A member of the team comes to the board and has 3 minutes to make his team guess as many words as possible by drawing them (he can pass 1 or 2 times).

A supervisor monitors the time and counts the points.

The winning team is the one with the most points at the end of an allotted time or when the cards have run out (125 cards = around 2 hours).

For older students, this can be an opportunity to work on English or French vocabulary: an additional objective can be added depending on the level of the students (acquiring vocabulary).
