In one of the 2nd year classes, we played English Shiritori.
For those of you who aren't familiar with Shiritori, it is a Japanese language game where one person says a word, the next person says a word which starts with the same syllable the last one ended with, etc.
We played the game using English words, and each word started with the letter that the previous one ended with.

Yoshikazu Sumi Shihan was born in Shiritori Japan on the 23rd June 1936.
He started his practice of karate at the age of 18 years at Keai college and his first teacher was Sensei Takaura.
Still living in Shiritori Japan, Sensei Sumi is the official Head of the Karate Union of Australia, and The School of Traditional Karate UK and Canada.
The threads will generally be self-explanatory with all forum rules in effect; no questions asked.
Shiritori is originally a Japanese word game where the players attempt to come up with words that correspond with the previous word's last or only syllable.
This system may not work in some cases due to the complexity of the English language, so at that point, you may post another word that conforms to the last word's final letter.

For those of you that don't know, this is a game where you say a word and the next person has to say a word that begins with the ending syllable or letter of the previous word.
