Step 3: work together with your neighbour.

Read the description of 1 of the words from the vocabulary list to your neighbour. Your neighbour has to guess the word you are talking about. When he/she/they guesses the word correctly, he/she/they score a point. Go on until a word isn't guessed. Then swap places. > Your neighbour will read a description to you, until you don't guess the word.
