New Cutting Edge Intermediate Module 1 to 4 vocabulary revision
Teachers’ notes
Possible activities:
1. Students define a word until the others guess which one they are explaining
2. Taboo- Similar, but with students first labelling each card with three words that can’t be said during the explanation (to make it more challenging and fun, and to make them think about the vocabulary more)
3. Storytelling- Students take turns choosing one card to continue the story they are telling
4. Random pelmanism- Students try to explain how pairs of cards are similar, using a different similarity each time (i.e. can’t say “They are both verbs” twice in the same game)
