This game challenges students' listening skills and general knowledge of English. Divide the class into two or three groups. Start by writing the alphabet on the board.

For example, if the students chose the letter A, they will be asked a question like this: What A is a vehicle used to take people to hospital? The answer being ambulance. Teams get points for every correct answer. If they get an answer wrong, the question can be given to another team.
