How to play:
Students are broken up into 2-3 teams (depending on class size). Students can see the game
board and the categories, but not point values.
Pick a team to go first. One representative for the team picks a number and letter. Using the
second page, give him/her a verb. He/she must give the correct imperative form for whatever
subject is listed. DU / SIE /IHR
If the student gets the answer correct, uncover that box to reveal how many points his/her
team gains (or loses). If he/she gets it wrong, don’t uncover the box – instead cross it out (this
box can no longer be used).
Continue this process with the next team. Make sure groups change representatives each
round. Go through about five rounds.
The randomized points help keep the game balanced – this way no team can get too far ahead
or too far behind.
