 Mastermind. This is a good activity for older children. The teacher chooses a four or five letter word, and draws the corresponding number of dashes on the board. The students have to choose a word of the correct length, and one of them writes it on the board under the dashes. The teacher marks each letter with a tick, a circle, or a cross. A tick means the letter is in the original word and is in the same place. A circle means the letter is in the original word but in the wrong place. A cross means the letter is not in the original word. Thanks so much for watching. We are ITTT, the leading provider for Tefal and TESOL training courses.
