    Pictionary
    Divide the class into Teams A and B. Team A sits in a group on one side of the classroom, Team B sits on the other side. One member from each team goes to the board. The teacher flashes them a word, phrase, or expression written on a piece of paper. The students have one minute to get their respective team to say the item only by drawing pictorial clues on the board. Written words, verbal clues, or gestures are forbidden.
    The first team to say the word scores a point.
    Variation: The teams review their notes from prior lessons, and collectively come up with a list of items the other team will have to draw.
