Vocabulary Dice

(TESOL Ideas--Any Vocabulary Set)

This is an idea I recently picked up from my new job.  The students are given a vocabulary word and then someone rolls the dice.  (For the purposes of this game, assume that "dice" is both the singular and the plural form.  I know only one "die" is actually rolled, but the game is called vocabulary "dice".)
The students must then write down the correct answer, but the answer will depend on what number comes up on the dice.  The game works best as a competition among teams--e.g. the first team to write the answer gets the point.

1 - definition, 

2 - write a sentence, 

3 - synonym, 

4 - antonym, 

5 - different word form, 

6 - collocation

Example of this game is here:
