A fun game that can be used to practise speaking about places in town and giving directions.
Works best if there are prizes for finding the treasures!
There are 5 maps with streets and town buildings (church, hospital ect) and three hidden treasure per slide. Students have to guess where the treasure is by naming the place of giving directions there, when you click on the place it reveals either an empty space or a treasure.
The third slide turns the whole game into a race between different teams.
In stronger classes they could practise prepositions and cases/genders (in der Kirche/ au stade ect)
The last two slides are more detailed to practise more complex directions like ‘over the bridge’, ‘at the traffic light’ ect.

This Murder Mystery is designed to run alongside Studio AQA GCSE Higher/Foundation Chapter 1 “Qui suis-je”, (and can be be adapted for Edexcel version) This project is intended to complement/ replace exercises from the text book and will link the pages together into one thrilling crime story.
