They each will face individual challenges that relate to communication when doing this activity. Following this activity, the class will be divided into four smaller groups.

Once Team #1 guesses correctly, it is passed to a member of Team #2 and so on. The beeper will go off and the team that is describing the word loses that round and the opposing team gets the
