How to use it
Give partners a shared goal and different roles. One learner reads a definition while the other finds its matching card; then swap. In bingo, ask partners to agree before marking. In a word search, one finds a word and the other explains it.
Let learners point, speak or write as appropriate. End with one example each partner can explain independently. Avoid requiring personal information during introduction activities.
Adapt the activity
For an easier task, use fewer familiar items, a smaller grid and a visible word list. For more challenge, use definitions, add diagonal directions or ask learners to explain each answer. Test one sheet before making copies.
