𝗙𝘂𝗻 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀: Charades game

⚽ Objective:

The goal of charades is for team members to guess the word or phrase being acted out by one of their teammates without any verbal clues.

⚽ Materials Needed:

A list of words or phrases (can be written on slips of paper or prepared in a digital format).
A timer (a smartphone timer or stopwatch works well).

⚽ Setup:

Divide the Class: Split the class into two or more teams.
Prepare Words/Phrases: Write down words or phrases on slips of paper and put them in a hat or a container. You can also use an online charades generator for ideas.

⚽ Rules:

Choose a Player: One player from the first team draws a word or phrase from the hat without showing it to their team.
Set the Timer: The player has a set amount of time (usually 1-2 minutes) to act out the word or phrase.
No Speaking: The player must act out the word or phrase without speaking or mouthing words.
Guessing: The player's team tries to guess the word or phrase based on the actions. If they guess correctly within the time limit, they score a point.
Rotate: Rotate to the next team and repeat the process. Continue until each team has had several turns.

⚽ Tips for Playing:

Use Clear Actions: Encourage players to use clear and exaggerated actions to convey their word or phrase.
Break Down Words: If the word or phrase is difficult, break it down into smaller parts and act out each part separately.
Categories: You can categorize the words or phrases (e.g., movies, animals, actions) to give a hint and make guessing easier.
Encourage Participation: Ensure all students get a turn to act and guess, promoting inclusivity.
Keep It Fun: Emphasize fun and teamwork rather than competition.
