Win,+Lose+or+Draw

Objectives: Review Vocabulary

Materials: 2 sets of index cards (plan on 1/2 of your total class size for each set) with vocabulary written on each set (color-coded), dry erase marker, stopwatch

Prep:

1. Create 2 sets of index cards (color-coded) with current vocabulary. It may be an idea to split up the words into 1/2 for each set so that the students don't sit through the other team's drawings and know exactly what to expect (i.e If there are 30 words, do 15 in one set and 15 in the other).

Procedure:

2. Divide class into 2 teams. Each team will be in competition with one another. 3. Select a side to go first, and let them know they will be timed on how long it takes for them to complete their set of index cards. 4. Start the stopwatch. 5. First student comes to get a card, and has to draw whatever is written on his/her index card (i.e. la mochila - the backpack). He/she draws the picture and his/her teammates can guess at what he/she is drawing. Guesses can only be in Spanish. 6. Once the correct vocabulary word is guessed, the next person goes to the teacher, gets a card and has to draw the vocabulary word. His/her teammates guess what the picture is, and the next person goes. The game continues until the entire team has completed the set of index cards. When the last person goes, the stopwatch is stopped and that team's time is written on the board. 7. The next team completes the same game, and their time is written on the board. The team with the fastest time wins!
