Their team has 30 seconds to guess what category word is being drawn. If they can guess within that time period, they get a point.

Once a category word has been guessed correctly, the team gets a point. The first team that can get a correct answer for each card category (5 points) is the winner.

4.  Words in a word game

Words in a word is an individual game. Before you start, make a list of long words with at least twelve letters. There are 20297 twelve letter words so you have plenty to choose from.

Write the first word on the whiteboard. Give your students 3 minutes to write as many different smaller words from that word as possible.

Students can only use letters from the whiteboard word and no others, and can’t use them more than once.

For example, if the word, was hippopotamus, students could write down a word with two Os, like shoot, but couldn’t write a word with two Ss like ships because hippopotamus has two Os but only has one S.

After 3 minutes, tell your students that time is up. The winner is the student with the highest number of correct words. Then start again and continue the game as long as time allows.

These 4 tried and true games that are easy to play on any school whiteboard are sure to bring smiles to young faces every time!
