On a third round, they aren't to mention the character, but must instead describe the person to be turned next, e.g. This time they should be doing much better and it becomes a memory game. Once you've done all the groups, hide all the tiles and start over. At first it'll be just good luck if they get it, but towards the end of a group they'll have a better chance as there will be less characters remaining. Go through your audience, student by student, and have them make a guess at which character is to be uncovered next. This activity can be conducted similarly with match up and rank order.Ĭreate a set of groups, an example might be Montagues and Capulets in Romeo and Juliet. The game ends when either all answers are moved to their correct position or when every player is out. If an answer is made incorrectly, another student may use their go to correct it. If they answer correctly, they join the back of the queue. If they move it into an incorrect slot, they are out and they must sit down. However they must line up and take turns to bat, i.e. Have a small group of students attempt to complete the exercise playing 'sort'. This activity works best if you have an interactive whiteboard. This obviously requires 3 or more different groups to work.

Then pick on each of the tiles in turn and ask students to move each tile again (into another group that is also incorrect). Once all the answers are placed and are incorrect. Students must then take turns to go, but the object is not avoid making a correct answer. The important thing is not just that they name a tile and where it should go, but that they state at least one reason to back up their choice.įor extra challenge, make it so that any reason given cannot be repeated for a second tile.įor this activity start the 'sort' game. Students now take turns to suggest a tile that should be moved. In this exercise, create a group sort and play it in unscramble mode. In the reveal game, the tiles are all placed under their correct headings, but their faces are hidden. Unlike the sort game, no indication of whether the placement is correct until you select 'reveal answers' from the in-game menu. The object of the exercise is to move the tiles into their correct positions. In the unscramble game, all of the tiles are already under the group headings, but they have been placed randomly. The in-game menu gives additional commands to restart the game, which will move all the tiles back to the start, and to reveal the correct answers, which will move them all to their correct place. The tile will gain a tick or cross to indicate if this has been done correctly. The object of the exercise is to drag them across into the correct areas. In the sort game, your items will all appear in the 'unsorted' area on the left hand side.
