Call My Bluff
“Call my Bluff” is a Powerpoint game aimed at 4th – 6th class for practising dictionary skills. It is ideal for use with an interactive whiteboard. On each slide, pupils are presented with a difficult word that they probably have not come across before. Three/four possible explanations are given for the word and pupils have to decide which one they think is the correct definition for the word.
