There are two teams of two, and only one person from each team has a word that they need to convey to their team member by using one word clues only. They cannot say any form or part of the word.
Depending on the size of your class, you might want to work out the groups and teams beforehand, and send them a list of playing groups and team members along with a numbered list of words so that you can say something like: Group 1 will play now: Player A get your teammate to guess Word 1. So A players would have one list of words to work with, and B players would have a different list. If you have ever played Catch Phrase, this is inspired by that game.
Give students a category, and they take turns naming items that match that category. While they are guessing, a random timer is used and whoever is next to give an answer when the timer goes off is eliminated from the round. Continue in this way until only one student is remaining. I used this random timer , where you can set your own minimum and maximum time, and it will randomly stop somewhere between the times you set.
I am also including a PDF printable version of the topics for the above three games. I also have a similar categories type game that I made with the intention of being played in a classroom, but it could definitely work in a virtual classroom setting as well. One last activity I did with my students was a type of game based on news headlines.
If you are familiar with the famed Florida Man, you will probably find this activity amusing. To make this a game, I wrote down headlines with key parts of the crazy story blanked out and I asked students to make their best guesses as to what would fill in the blank. For example:. Students then tried to guess what he might have thrown through the window. In most cases, it is unlikely that anyone will actually guess correctly, so you can award points or just declare the winner to the student coming closest to the correct answer.
If you want to try this game with your students, here is a Google Forms document that I created that shows the headline with the blank, and after they make their guess, you can click to the next section which will give you the answer, and often the news article or related image.
On the first example, be sure to read the article to find out the ridiculous way he got caught, which is almost as good as the headline! My students were a group of English language learners, some of whom live in other countries, and some in the U. Also, because these are all related to criminal activity, you might want to review all the sections and delete any examples that you think may not be appropriate for your class. For a similar fill-in-the-blank activity that will get your students cracking up, you might also like to try my Gerunds Game.
See description below. It was not specifically designed for a virtual classroom, but I was able to easily adapt it to work for a virtual lesson, and the students loved coming up with funny and crazy sentences!

I have been a huge fan of Boom Cards ever since I discovered them about 4 years ago. I can say that I am a bit obsessed with them! Up until earlier this year, they were great for using in the classroom or assigning as fun homework activities to give students the extra practice they needed.
Well, now that our classrooms look so much different, and we are all scrambling for ways to make our teaching compatible with distance learning, I love them even more! And at a time when we need flexibility the most, the best part is they May 27, What a strange year it has been! Two years ago, who could have guessed how suddenly and drastically teaching would change? Classroom teachers never could have imagined that almost overnight teaching would move completely online.
Yet here we are. My instinct was that while we as teachers were stressing about how to do online lessons, the students who were already used to spending every free moment with their phones and tablets would have a much easier time making this transition.
But it turns out I was wrong. Learning in this format has proved to be much more difficult for them
