The words on the cards below are important in understanding the definition of the
mole. Cut out the cards.
Game 1
Hold a card above the head of a volunteer. The volunteer can ask for clues from
anyone in the class, and must keep asking until they guess the correct word above their
head.
Game 2
A variation is to ask the student with the card above their head to ask questions until
they are able to guess the word correctly.
Game 3
Ask a student to select a card. Only they read the card and then describe the idea to
the rest of the class, who guess the word on the card. The student who answers
correctly rolls a die and counts round the room from themselves to select the next
lucky student to describe the word on the card.
