BLURT! A Vocab Game We will play a game to review some key terms from AP Language Before the game begins, get into groups of 4-6. Everyone must be in a group and be actively participating. Prior to round 1, you and your group will get 5 minutes to preview the words and try to remember as many as you can. (You are competing AGAINST your group, so YOU need to individually learn the words) Identify one person in your group to be the judge/scorekeeper.

BLURT! Round 1: Place all your blurt cards inside your group’s envelope. To begin, one person in your group will pull ONE blurt card (don’t let anyone else see) That person may say ANYTHING to get your group to guess the word EXCEPT the word itself (this is like the game Taboo). You may not move on to the next card until your someone has guessed the word. The person in your team who first BLURTS the correct word out gets a point. When someone gets the first word, place that card on the table, pass the envelope to the next person, and they will do the same thing.
8
BLURT! Round 2: Lay all your BLURT words out for another 2 minute preview round. After the preview time is up, place all the words back in the envelope. Round 2 is charades, so the person giving the words can do any MOTION OR GESTURE to get people to guess the word, but they may not say anything. If the actor says anything, the judge can take a point away from their score. The first person to BLURT the correct word based on the acting gets the point. When a word is correctly guessed, lay that card on the table, pass the envelope, and continue the round for 5 minutes.
9
BLURT! Round 3: Lay all your BLURT words out for another 2 minute preview round. After the preview time is up, place all the words back in the envelope. During round 3, the word-giver is only allowed to say ONE SINGLE WORD to get their team to guess the correct vocab word. The single word CANNOT BE THE VOCAB WORD ITSELF. Once the word has been guessed and the point given, lay the card on the table and continue passing the envelope for 5 minutes. The person in your group with the most points at the end of round 3 is the winner!
