Guess who/what I am

MATERIALS: sets of cards with names of people/animals/objects OR sets of cards with descriptions of people/animals/objects

INSTRUCTIONS: This game can be played in different ways

1. Teachers gives each student a card with a name written on it and the students are not allowed to look at the names on their cards. Students ask YES/NO questions to find out as much information about their names. If the answer to their question is YES, they can ask another question but when they get NO for an answer, they loose their turn. They ask questions until they don't guess the name. 

2. Students read the description on their cards to the rest of the class and other students have to guess the person/animal/object described.
