Alphabet Race

This one can get a little messy (particularly with a teenage group) so make sure you establish the ground rules first.

Students are divided into two teams.  The first student from each team comes up to the board and writes (e.g. an adjective) beginning with the letter 'A'.  The next student on his/her team then comes to the board and writes an adjective beginning with 'B', and so on through the alphabet.  The students cannot use a word that the other team has already written down, and if a student can't think of a word he/she passes to the next player.

I organise this by having the next student in line sitting on a chair at the back of the class, and working on a 'relay' system, so as to avoid people crowding around the board.
