With my 15-year-old pupils. This is what they'd come up with when the bell rang. Not bad at all, bearing in mind that, for their word to be accepted, they had to define it (just because I'm cruel 😜)
@tinley23 Thanks, they enjoyed it! @ingrid01 They (we) are bilingual in Spanish and Catalan, so technically English is their third language @boxplayer I didn't know they knew that word - but then they are teenage boys. It was fun when they tried to define it, while being (relatively) polite. @rensala@mittens@merrelyn Thanks a lot! They had a great time - and managed to stay away from their mobile phones for a whole 55 minutes! Also, they showed they have been paying attention in class. They boy who used "sued" asked me the word some months ago to use it in a writing, and he still remembers it - I'm so chuffed.
