Maths – answers to sums MFL – translation of vocabulary 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 window. Under the window you can find: --------------------------------------- 1. A sweet– worth 1 point to your team 2. Two sweets – 2 points to your team 3. A pumpkin – your team loses 1 point 4. A ghost – your team loses 2 points. Team with the most points at the end WINS.
