Get your students out of their seats and develop their 19th Century vocabulary with this Quiz, Quiz, Trade game. It uses challenging vocabulary from Edgar Allan Poe’s Gothic short story, The Tell-Tale Heart (the word class is also included).
You can either have your students play it before they approach the short story or after having read it.
If you don’t know how to do Quiz, Quiz, Trade, there are short instructional videos on YouTube.
I use this to help the students structure their own answers and those of their peers. It also helps them track how their own opinions evolve and develop when working with their peers.

I cut them out and laminated them and made a display for the English corridor with them. Both students and teachers have enjoyed them!
