20 Questions

Level: Lower Intermediate and above students.

Teacher's notes:

1. Ask the students to each think of a famous person.
   
2. Put a chair in front over the class and ask one student to sit on it.
   
3. The other students should try to guess which famous person the student is by asking twenty questions. These questions can only be answered with YES/NO OR MAYBE.
   
   For example:
   • Are you dead?
   • Are you an actor?
   • Do you come form the USA?
   • Do you work in Hollywood?
   • Have you written a famous book?
     
4. The students should guess who the person is before they reach the twentieth question.
5. Go around the entire class until all of the famous people are know.
   

VARIATION

Ask the students to only think of actors or only of writers i.e. restrict the choice of famous person.
