From the Game Gal Here's a list of phrases to play an acting game like charades. All of the phrases are actions to act out. Have students take turns acting out a phrase silently in front of the class. The rest of the class tries to guess what the student is acting out. You can cut along the lines to cut the words into strips that students could draw from a bowl, or just read the words out loud. For detailed instructions on how to play charades, more free word lists, and even more games and printouts, head to http://www.thegamegal.com/2010/11/06/pictionary/ (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0)
