Postal Vocabulary - 4 of 4

3rd Game

Two parallel lines of students facing each other as if in two teams.

Someone in one line says a word used typically at a post office, such as "registered" and throws a ball to someone on the other team who says another "postal expression" like "airmail" and so on.

Vocabulary from text that hopefully gets named:

a (£5) note

change purse

to post

register

the counter

a sign

to return

return address

to send

airmail

valuable

a rainy day

(the) change

stamp(s)

letter

special delivery*

contains

put away

coins

stick on

parcel*

main entrance

the postage

envelope

Although no points are kept track of, it is a kind of fast-moving team game where as soon as someone on one team has shouted out a relevant word, s/he throws the ball to someone on the other team, who does the same and throws it back.

At the end, abruptly announce that you've got another joke for them. Change the dynamic by lowering your voice and drawing the whole group towards you.
