Battleships

Give students a blank grid of squares - maybe 8 x 8, with the horizontal and vertical axes marked with numbers and letters.  Tell them they must write five adjectives (or irregular verbs, nouns, or whatever else you're teaching) somewhere on the grid without showing their partner.

Now, as per the traditional game, students aim 'torpedoes' at their opponent in the slightly less dramatic fashion of calling out grid numbers (B4, C8 and so on) in the attempt to hit one of the words.  Winner is the one who finds all of his/her opponents words.
