What's the word?
ESL / EFL RESOURCES
Activity Type
Introduction
Listening and speaking activity, group work
Here is a fun guessing game to help students practice using defining relative clauses with who, which and where.
Procedure
Language Focus
Divide the class into groups of three or four.
Defining relative clauses with who, which and where
Give each group a set of cards. Tell the students to shuffle the cards and place them face down in a pile on the desk.
Aim To describe words using defining relative clauses.
Demonstrate the activity by picking up a card (e.g. library) and telling the students to listen to your definition and guess the word.
Preparation
Define the word using a relative clause, e g. 'It's a place where people read books'.
Make one copy of the cards for each group of three or four and cut as indicated.
When a student guesses the word correctly, give them the card. Explain that the students are going to play the same game in their groups.
Level
The students then take it in turns to pick up a card and give a definition of the word on the card using a relative clause.
Pre-intermediate
Examples:
Time 30 minutes
It’s a thing which... It’s a person who... It’s a place where... Students cannot use the word on the card or variations of the word in their definitions. The first student to guess the word keeps the card. The student with the most cards at the end of the game wins.
