Objectives

The learner can use learned vocabulary.

Material

  • Blackboard or something alike.

Preparation

  • Repeat the vocabulary of a treated topic in a previous session: What words do you remember and can you explain them? This will stimulate the consolidation of the words and allows learners who were absent to participate in the activity.

Instructions

  • Divide the group into teams of 3 or 4 people.
  • Let each team choose a word you have just repeated.
  • Give them time to ‘sculpt’ (mime) the word as a team. It is important every learner participates in the sculpting.
  • Every team sculpts the chosen word for the other teams.
  • Let the other teams guess the word. The team who guesses right gets a point.
  • Write the word on the blackboard.
