TitleActivity for whiteboards
Body
Editor's Note: This author notes that he doesn't use whiteboards, but rather
erasable pens on platic sheet protectors with white paper inserts.

In addition to the Active Participation strategies, ("I'm going to count un, deux,
trois and I want you to flash me the number Treize") I learned a game I'm
calling Pictionary.

Students sit in rows of four with the back person turned around facing the wall.
I flash the people facing the front a vocabulary word in English) and they have
to draw a picture. They pass this back with a marker and the person in the
back has to write what the word is based on the drawing. The person in the
row who holds it up first gets the team points.

When I gave my little survey at the end of the year, this activity scored well on
the question: One thing I liked to do is. . . .
