Describe, mime, 2 words

This circle game is for higher levels, where students have a wider vocabulary and can already describe things.

‘Stand up and move’ will help them focus. You can see that I’m sitting next to the student who has to perform, so I can help them if necessary.

Once they know how to play the game well, you can challenge them with a time constraint, e.g. 5 min. to do all 3 rounds (‘Beat the clock’ for teams).

Sports is a good topic, because you can talk about the equipment or name/show the actions. Other good topics would be: shops, jobs, body verbs, animals (animal body parts, etc. If you have some other good topics, please share them in the comments.
