As a preparation, the teacher photocopies the crossword puzzle sheet and the worksheet for each group.

1 Put students into groups of three or four, depending on the size of the class.
2 Hand out the crossword puzzle sheet and the worksheet to each group.
3 Let students take a look at the words written across and down in the puzzle and ask them
how they would describe these words using relative clauses. Also, tell students to write their
descriptions on the worksheets provided in a suitable amount of time, and then to share them
with the class.

E.g. MUSEUM: a place where objects of historical, scientific, artistic or cultural interest are stored
and exhibited.

unknown vocabulary items, encourage them to search for it on the Net or in their dictionaries.
