Defining objects

1. Choose a simple inanimate object, and tell all the class but one what it is. Students describe it by saying what can be done (or must/should be done) with it, until the one who does not know can guess. For example, an egg might be described by sentences like: It can be eaten. It must be eaten fresh. It can be broken.
2. The guesser may also ask questions: Can it be boiled? Can it be decorated?
