Pictionary is an educational game allows students to convey the meaning of a term or concept through pictures. Having students draw their representation of a word allows for deeper understanding of the meaning of the word.
If you have been reading this blog for awhile, you know how much I love games and activities in the classroom. They so often are irresistable to disengaged learners and they can help many students show what they know in a different way.
Playing Pictionary is simple and easy:
- Divide your class into 2-4 teams.
- Have one student from each team come to the front and pull a card from the stack.
- Give students three options to describe the word on the list. They can describe by:
a) drawing (pictionary)
b) action (charades)
c) words (oral description) - The rest of the team try to guess the word.
- Points given for each correct answer!
