Buzzword

Materials:
 * List of prepared sentences (in case of Team Competition)(See below)

Instructions:
 * Team Competition: Separate players into teams. Each round you will read one or more sentences in which a keyword is replaced by the word "buzz" or a variation (such as 'buzzed,' 'buzzer,' 'buzzify'). Students have to then identify what the word "buzz" is replacing in that sentence. You could give just one long sentence (i.e. "My parents are *buzzing* me to travel with them - force/forcing) or a set of three small ones (i.e., "I *buzz* an elephant in my notebook," "The game ended in a *buzz*," and "Leonardo DaVinci made many famous *buzzings*"). The team which recognizes the buzz word first gets the point.
 * Scene: Two students (or more) are give a word they must replace with *buzz* or its variations when they roleplay a scene together. Students who are sitting out must then try to guess what that word is. For instance, you can have students roleplay a scene of a police officer pulling over a driver and the buzzword could be "license" or "seatbelt."
