Powerpoint in which an overview of how to say 'the', 'my', 'your' and 'he / she / it / them' after 'mit' is built up one slide at a time. Students can be invited to deduce the patterns from the clues present on slide 1. Once the table has been built up, each subsequent slide has a single item missing, so you can play Kim's Game.

This is a facilitated activity I did with my Year 11s (i) to help them share ideas on how to revise and (ii) to help the recalcitrant see that the others were busy revising. After the creation of the Post-It wall I typed up all their ideas and distributed them to the whole class.

Simple quiz. Each slide of the powerpoint begins with an outline map of one of the competing countries in Euro 2012.

A fourth click will reveal the name of the team. How many clicks do your pupils need before they identify the team?
