Generate a list of terms students know. Choose vocabulary words that will be a challenge to express in picture form.
Explain the rules of Pictionary to students. Classroom Pictionary rules state that you select one term from the vocabulary list and show it to one player from each team. The artists have 10 seconds to look at the word. When the time is up, the artists start drawing until a member of their team correctly guesses the term. The artists can only use images, no letters or words.
Divide the class into two teams. Each team elects one person to draw for their team. Team members shout out guesses.
Start the first round. Artists draw the term on the whiteboard so all team members can see. As the moderator, you need to listen for the correct term. That team with the correct guess wins one point.
Switch artists and repeat the process until all the vocabulary terms are used. The team with the most points at the end of the game is pronounced the winner.
