Similar to the classic TV show and excellent as a team-based retrieval practice activity. This game is best played using the glossary at the back of the text book and is ideal for revision at the end of a course or topic. When the students request a letter the teacher (or another student) randomly selects a word from the glossary which begins with that letter. The teacher then reads out the glossary definition for that word and the students guess it. The team that wins the letter can then request the next letter and so on… The PowerPoint has hexagons with ‘triggered animation’ - click on a hexagonal shape containing a letter once and it will change to white, click on it twice and it changes to blue. The ‘score’ hexagons contain editable text boxes. When one team wins a round click on the ‘0’, delete it and type in ‘1’. The PowerPoint is macro free and comes with a Word Document instructions sheet.
