Game of the month (January)

Codenames

Do you know the game 'Codenames'?  If not, go ahead and read, watch You Tube videos about it, and more than anything else TRY IT!

It is so much fun, gets your brain working and thinking out of the box.
It looks pretty easy until you actually become a 'Spymaster'.  

I've played it in all my teens classes last month, and the kids loved it so much, they are begging for 'just one more round', even though lesson time is over, it is 8h30 pm, they haven't had dinner yet, and are in the middle of their exams.

The other day we had class on Zoom, and we tried the online version, but unfortunately that one didn't work well, due to too much traffic, I suppose.

But it is easy to make one for online teaching as well, using just the words we would like to practice or review.

As you can guess from the picture ↓, I have been using different cards to play.  I admit, I didn't buy the game.

I will write about this↓game again in a different blog.
But for JANUARY definitely our game of the month was

CODEnames!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
