Accurately... Effectively.... Efficiently... • You got, uh, 10 minutes, TOPS...

  8. Challenge - 2 • In pairs: A and B still • Now B gets revenge.... • B go to the front to see the image held in secret by your teacher. • A get ready – A’s gonna describe it and YOU will have to draw what A tells you • Let’s see how good you are at passing on instructions...
