In turn, each group chooses a square on the board.
Ask the group the question.
If they answer correctly write the group number in the square and the amount of money won.

Go round the groups twice.

Check results and see which groups have won most money.

You have five minutes.

Notes

This version of the grid is based on grammar and vocabulary that should be known to Senior 2 (and perhaps Senior 1) classes and is ALL about use of English language.
More general grids can be used if required. (See alternate version of plan)

Write a copy of the grid in your lesson plan. Your copy should include in each section the question, the answer and a cash value for a correct answer.
