Example Challenge Card

Quick Draw: Draw a picture to get another player to guess the word “doggedly” as it’s used in the sentence: “They had come from the right, and doggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow, deliberate strokes, conserving his strength.”

(Answer Key: draw a picture not of a dog, but of someone who won’t give up and keeps trying even when he is tired)
