With this customizable game board, you can turn any worksheet, practice test, or topic into an irresistible game that students are begging you to play.

English forehead guessing vocabulary game

This forehead guessing game is very simple. It includes 55 cards with pictograms representing an object, an action or an animal. This version is a mishmash of themes.

This resource is included in my ESL - ELL speaking, listening, writing activities and games - Growing bundle.

How to play:

From 2 to 10 players. Make two or more teams, the team with the youngest player starts the game.

Draw a card and without looking at it, show it to other members of your team. If possible, place it on his forehead with an adhesive. The player who draws the card must ask questions in order to guess what is on the card. The other members of the team answer only by "YES", "NO" or "sometimes" or another word that can guide his or her teammates. No gestures or noises are allowed. For example, if the card shows a dog,  the player will have to ask several questions to be able to know what is on his card.

Examples:

"Is it an animal"? Yes

“Does this animal live in water”? No

“Does it eat meat”? Yes

The team scores a point if the word is guessed. The team that reaches 10, 15 or 20 points has won !!

Paired or Group Speaking Game - No, because...

What is this game?   A guessing game to get your students speaking!  This game is similar to (but more challenging than) the game of twenty questions. Be sure to check out the video preview!

Number of players:  Two people or a small group.  It can be challenging, so I recommend this game for grades 6 and higher.

What is included:  50 playing cards

How to play: This game is very simple, but you really need to explain how it works for students to play it correctly and not turn it into a 20 questions type of game.  One player thinks of an object and the other players try to guess what it is. Each card has an image of a person, place, or a thing. The person holding the card is the one who will do the most speaking.  The other people in the group will simply ask questions like “Is it a _____?”  All they can ask is if the image on the card is a particular noun.  The person holding the card has to answer by saying, “No, it's not a ____ because…..”

Examples:

Player 1 is holding a card and sees an image of a banana.  

Player 2 says something like, “Is it a shoe?”

Player 1 has to respond by starting out with saying something like “No, because it's not something you wear.”

Player 2 guesses another specific noun, and then another.  He or she might say “Is it a chair?”

Player 1 might say "No, because you don't sit on it.

Player 2 continues to guess, and might say "Is it a car?"

Player 1 might say "No, because you don't drive it."

Player 2 continues to guess, and might say "Is it broccoli?"

Player 1 might say "No, because it's sweeter."

Player 2 might say "Is it an apple?"

Now that Player 2 has guessed a fruit, he’s pretty close.  

Player 1 can now say something like "No, but it is a fruit."

Player 2 now just starts guessing different fruits until he or she gets it.

This can be a challenging game that requires a good amount of thought, and you really have to tell your students who are guessing that they can’t ask question about what’s on the card.  They can ONLY ask if it’s a specific noun.  The player holding the card can’t answer YES or NO.  They really need to remember that their response has to begin with NO, BECAUSE…

This is a fun game that will really get your students speaking, and you’ll love hearing them as they play it!

Weather Vocabulary - ESL Taboo Speaking Game

Playing TABOO is a great way to get ESL students to speak English and learn a lot of new vocabulary. This game is simple to modify and use with beginners and advanced students alike. In this WEATHER version of the game there are 30 playing cards. I've included 2 fun ways to play this fun vocabulary game and both are explained in the instructions.

This ESL Taboo game includes the following:
⇨ How to play classic Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
⇨ 30 Taboo game cards to print, laminate, cut out and hook together with a ring
⇨ PDF for projecting one card at a time for a whole class activity
⇨ How to play 15 MINUTES MAX - an alternative version of the game
⇨ 15 MINUTES MAX game board

Object of the game:

One player tries to get his teammate to guess the word at the top of a card. The player must give clues, but he can't use any of the Taboo words in his description. The taboo words are written beneath the word at the top of the card. Teams score points for each word successfully guessed. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Beginner students should be allowed to use the TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.

English Christmas Taboo Speaking Game

Playing TABOO is a great way to get ESL students to speak English and learn a lot of new vocabulary. This game is simple to modify and use with beginners and advanced students alike. In this CHRISTMAS version of the game there are 30 playing cards. I've included 2 fun ways to play this fun vocabulary game and both are explained in the instructions.

This ESL Taboo game includes the following:

How to play classic Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
30 Taboo game cards to print, laminate, cut out and hook together with a ring
Black and white and grayscale copies are included
PDF for projecting one card at a time for a whole class activity
How to play 15 MINUTES MAX - an alternative version of the game
15 MINUTES MAX game board

*In the upper left corner there's a spot for you to punch holes in the cards so that you can then attach them with a ring for no prep use every time. Be sure to laminate if at all possible.

Object of the game:

One player tries to get his teammate to guess the word at the top of a card. The player must give clues, but he can't use any of the Taboo words in his description. The taboo words are written beneath the word at the top of the card. Teams score points for each word successfully guessed. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Beginner students should be allowed to use the TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.

❖ Ice Breaker Activity: Find someone who... ESL - ELL ❖

Find someone who... This group speaking activity is great for getting students to speak to each either at back to school as an ice-breaker or at the end of the year. 5 versions of this activity are included so you can easily use it 5 separate times during the year without being repetitive. This activity is great for building community in the classroom no matter what subject students are learning.

How to play:

Have your students move around the room asking classmates if they have ever done what is written in the squares on the worksheet that you provide. If a classmate responds with YES he or she writes his name on the line provided. Complete sentences are encouraged even when the answer is NO. Activity continues until all boxes are filled. Once all of the boxes have been signed your students can turn in their papers.

Your students will enjoy learning fun facts about their classmates, and you will certainly like seeing them getting to know each other!

Halloween - ESL Taboo Speaking Game

Playing TABOO is a great way to get ESL students to speak English and learn a lot of new vocabulary. This game is simple to modify and use with beginners and advanced students alike. In this HALLOWEEN theme version of the game there are 35 playing cards. I've included 2 fun ways to play this fun vocabulary game and both are explained in the instructions.

This ESL Taboo game includes the following:

➤ How to play classic Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)

➤ 35 Taboo game cards to print, laminate, cut out and hook together with a ring

➤ Color and black and white versions provided

➤ How to play 15 MINUTES MAX - an alternative version of the game

➤ 15 MINUTES MAX game board

In the upper left corner there's a spot for you to punch holes in the cards so that you can then attach them with a ring for no prep use every time. Be sure to laminate if possible.

Object of the game:

One player tries to get his teammate to guess the word at the top of a card. The player must give clues, but he can't use any of the Taboo words in his description. The taboo words are written beneath the word at the top of the card. Teams score points for each word successfully guessed. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Beginner students should be allowed to use the TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.
