Toolkit

Taboo

Resources:

You need to have thought about which words you want to use and which words will be disallowed- but no real resources needed




How It Works:

Either in pairs, groups, or as a class.
Students are given Keywords- underneath those keywords are words that are taboo- they can not use those words.
The students then have to describe the keyword to their team/partner/class without using the taboo words.

When a student correctly guesses that keyword- they can earn bonus points for then guessing what the taboo words were?

Variations:

Endless variations!
