I personally don't like using more than one power point when teaching and would rather include all activities in the same presentation so I would not have to exit the slideshow.
I have updated my noughts and crosses slide by creating animation which make the noughts or crosses appear when clicking on their mini version. With a few sounds effects, that adds some dynamism (and can be of course edited. I have kept the same one for all).
This powerpoint can easily be adapted to any topic by simply changing the pictures and inserting them behind the large noughts and crosses when editing. If you are directly copy pasting these two slides in your own powerpoint, just expect some changes (you might have to drag a few picture back in position) because of the format (mine is quite larger).
Regarding the activity itself, I usually proceed this way:
- First slide is group work: here, for instance, boys are playing against girls. Of course you won't get to pick more than 9 pupils but you can use both hands up/no hands up if targeting certain pupils. This will also model what to do in preparation to next slide: the pupils will choose a box by saying out loud the word the picture represents (and in French of course!). If the activity seems a bit too easy for your class, challenge them by asking whole sentences.
- Second slide is pair work: to make sure everyone gets involved, pupils are asked to draw a blank 9 square grid on which they will draw their noughts or crosses. Make sure they don't also copy the pictures on the board!! The teacher will be able to walk around in the class and listen to pupils saying the words (or challenging themselves by saying a whole sentence) and give them immediate feedback.
Also, this is a good game as a mini plenary after going through all the vocabulary.
Voilà! Please let me know if you found it useful!
