Guess the Compound Noun!
This compound noun guessing game serves primarily two functions:
- Organizes 24 basic compound nouns applicable for beginners with illustrations for reference.
- Works as a taboo-style speaking game for beginner and intermediate speakers.
Display the activity on the board, projector or share your screen. Choose a student at random to begin the game. They should have an object in mind from the PDF. They must get the others to guess the object by describing its function or appearance. The only rule is that you can’t use either of the two words that make up the compound noun. E.g. “You wear this when it rains.” would be against the rules of this compound noun guessing game if the answer was “Raincoat”.
You could also try a reverse taboo game where students try to describe what their object isn’t. 🤷♂️
