End your lessons with a bang !
Use this game as a plenary activity. This can be used for any subject and any year. E.g. MFL – translation of vocabulary
Maths – answers to sums. History – dates, facts
I personally have used it for pupils to translate vocabulary covered in a topic, scaffolding questions, starting with single words and then building up to more complex sentences.
How to run the activity:
Split the class into two groups or more.
Teacher asks a question to each group.
Teacher selects by hands up (or miniwhiteboards, or team discussion).
Teacher selects a pupil to give the answer.
If the answer is correct – pupil can choose a mine.
If there’s a coin under the bomb - one point for your team
If there’s an explosion under the bomb - lose one point
If there’s a super bomb - the rubber duck of the evil clown - lose 2 points.
The team with the most points wins!

Make translation exciting !
Pupils take it in turns to translate text as it scrolls upwards, Star Wars style. Input 10 lines of text for your pupils to translate, making the translations progressively harder.
The challenge is translating them in time before they disappear off the page.
One pupil must not be able to see the board and they must listen to their partner as he or she reads out the text as it appears. The partner who cannot see then translates.
Then swap!
