Catchphrase - Say What You See!

This is one of my favourite starter activities and one which I ‘showcased’ at the recent Business Teachers National Conference in London.

Again, such a simple activity that gets the students thinking.

Based on the popular TV show with Roy Walker (still showing on Challenge TV), the activity involves students trying to work out key words from visual clues that are slowly revealed. Once the students have guessed the word it forms a basis for further discussion. I have taken this activity one step further by challenging my students to come up with a catchphrase for myself and the rest of the group to work out. Let the students do the starter!

I have included 3 of the catchphrases that I used at the BTNC (all of which were designed by my students). The first one is Just-In-Time whilst the last one is Gearing. The second, well, just say what you see!

Enjoy…........
