School Subjects Guessing Game - School Subjects Vocabulary

Guess the subject from what is on screen: the equipment, the classroom, the things a lesson leaves behind. Maths, geography, chemistry, PE and the rest.

School subjects are among the first nouns a beginner needs and among the easiest to teach badly, because a list of them explains nothing. Here each subject arrives as evidence - the objects and images that belong to it - and the class names it before the answer appears.

The guessing does something a list cannot: it sends students looking for a word they half know, which is the moment a word becomes usable. Three minutes, built for beginners, and it fits into any back-to-school lesson or timetable topic.
