I'm sure you've played the game before. It's when you pick a sentence or a phrase and then you have to draw it on a board and then your teammates have to guess what it is. It also makes a great ESL review activity. So I put in a little bag or a box, all the words or phrases that I want to review in my class. And then I put students into two teams. Someone from that first team comes up, picks a word out of the box and then draws it on the board and their team has to guess what it is in English, of course. I don't allow them to use their first language if they have a common first language. And then I usually will give them a time limit. So I'll say like a minute for each round. Once they get that first word, they can draw another word out of the box and try to get as many points as possible in that first round or that one minute. Then the other team goes for one minute and then you can play as many rounds as you wish. Okay, so that's about it for this activity.
