‘The Drawing Game’ is a very simple game, perfect for kids, though it can be fun for adults too. You probably know it already. It’s basically pictionary: someone draws a picture and the others guess what it is. I always split the students into two teams, have one member of each team come up to me where I’m sitting near the board. I show them the word I’ve written, they draw it, points go to the team who can guess it first. I go through 5 words and then each team has to change the team-member who’s drawing. It’s good for 10-15 minutes at the end of class, but not for much longer, since it’s usually kind of hyperactive. As you’re doing it remind the students that they can’t write words, speak or make any actions: it’s all about the picture.
Below are a few specific word-lists which suit this game. And you can also use:
Airport
Bath Bell Eiffel Tower Lake London Temple
Garfield Jurassic Park
