Revision Activity - Business Scrabble

This is an excellent activity for revision at all levels. I have just done it today with my A2 pupils as a starter when revising Unit 6 material. Such an easy, easy concept which needs no preparation.

The students can either play on their own or in pairs/ 3’s. I use squared paper using one square per letter following the rules of scrabble. The students can only use business words or words associated with a specific topic. This activity can also be made interactive by writing a word on the board and then inviting students to come up and add their own. The end result is a really cool looking whiteboard full of key words.
