celebrity+descriptions

Celebrity Description Game For this game, you’ll need: • a class set of small white boards (you can get these at Home Depot for pretty cheap) • a class set of dry erase markers • a set of rags for erasing • a list of 30-40 young celebrities that the students would know

This game actually came about spur of the moment. My Spanish 1 classes were learning description words and how to describe themselves and others. I thought a fun way to practice would be using celebrities. 1. Each student gets a dry erase board, marker, and rag. 2. The teacher calls out the name of a celebrity 3. Each student has to write down one of their vocabulary words to describe that person- matching gender/number 4. Students hold up the boards 5. The teacher can award points however they choose (first to raise board correctly, best description, etc.)


 * a way to enhance this game would be to use pictures along with the names that way even if the students do not know who the celebrity is, they can still participate ☺
