Five Guesses

Description

Students pick an item out of a set list (i.e. from vocabulary that they have been studying). They make pairs and try to guess what item their partner picked. If they guess correctly the first time, they win 5 points. If they guess correctly the second time they get 4, and so on. If they can’t guess in 5 turns, their partner can tell them the answer.

Notes

  • The number of guesses can be reduced, particularly if there aren’t many options to choose between.
  • A variation of this game is to have the students pick more than one item, and their partner gets one point for each item that they guess correctly.
