Hey this was a great idea...my MS1 and MS2 classes really seemed to enjoy it. It was difficult explaining the rules to them but once they got the hang of it they began to enjoy it. I found out that for next time, and yes there will definitely be a next time, that I will need top prepare harder words for the students.

I am going to use this for my class tomorrow. I teach University students and I played "pictionary" several weeks ago. I found out that 1/4 of the words I selected the students did not know. For this game, I am just going to spend 5 minutes at the beginning of the class and have the students write down 10 nouns. That way, the students will not only know the words, but it will also save me time in preparation! Just an idea

It's great, the kids have fun.
I used this game for Senior High School EFL Students, Grade 12. They enjoyed it. I did some modifications though. I use d categories for each group. I gave them time to choose their leader for the hot seat, and gave them time to discuss what would the words be for their part of the category. The rest, they were having fun and learning!

Hi. I've been using Hot Seat in China for several years and it's always popular and useful. Instead of 10 words I use a phrase or short sentence on the board, e.g. "A big red house".
A lot of useful fun.
