Jobs running dictation

Put pupils into groups and give each group a sheet of plain paper. Stick the written descriptions around the classroom (far enough away from the tables that pupils can't read them). Each team sends one pupil at a time to their text, they read one of the phrases and come back to write down what they remember of it while another pupil goes up. The descriptions are all different so pupils can't cheat and look at other groups' work! This helps them build skills in teamwork, memory and thinking skills and focuses on checking spellings & grammar.
