• For middle primary students, read out the real definition and two others (you will have to make these up). The team chooses the one they think is correct, getting a point for each.
• Copy ten of the words on one side of the board and the definitions on the other. In teams, students match the words and the definitions. They are given three chances to have their attempts checked by you. Each time, tell them ones (if any) they have correct and how many others (without specifying which ones) are incorrect. Students then have the opportunity to change their choices until their chances are up.
