Divide class into 2 teams. Put one whiteboard area. Each team chooses one "artist" at the board; everyone else lines up. Teacher shows the first student in each line a simple word/phrase (NOT grammar), e.g., "robot, pizza, rainy day, superhero, angry cat". That student runs to the artist and describes it (no gestures allowed). Artist draws while listening. When the artist guesses correctly, the next student comes up for a new word. Rotate the artist every 2-3 rounds.

Students work in pairs. They transform commands, yes/no questions, and WH questions into reports. Whole-class feedback. Teacher elicits and writes the best versions.
