This resource can be used as a revision lesson for GCSE Business. The aim is to help consolidate key terms by playing a game. This could be used for remote learning if the document is sent out to players but ideally it would be in class with the cards cut out in a deck. 1 In pairs or teams - have at least one describer and one or more guessers 2 Roll the dice and look at the colour the dice lands on 3 The describer picks a card from the deck and demonstrates the key term to the guesser 4 The guesser has 30 seconds to guess the word 5 If correct, team goes again, if not, the next team rolls the dice 6 First team round the board three times wins (Note: the game can be adapted i.e. if no dice, you can just go in order i.e. first card marketing, then external influences etc.) This is an editable version so it can be adapted if you would like to map it to a different specification or course.
