Another favourite of mine, Ludo. There are several ways in which you can use this template. In all cases students answer questions when they land on a numbered field.
Variation 1: Create 24 questions, 6 for each colour. The same 24 questions get asked so great for definitions, facts, etc.
Variation 2: Choose 4 different topics and write questions that vary from 1-6 marks or vary in their level of difficulty. A lot of questions need to be written so that each student landing on a red 1 for example gets asked a different 1 mark/easy question.
Variation 3:Choose 4 different topics. Students answer questions when they land on a numbered field. If they answer incorrectly, they have to move as many spaces back as was indicated on the question field (e.g. if they land on green 3, they move 3 spaces back).
Variation 4: As variation 3 but have an extra set of questions ranging from A*/A-C. These questions have to be answered as soon as students reach their home fields marked with * (Grade C), ** (Grade B) and *** (GradeA*/A).

CONNECT 4
I saw the idea on twitter and adapted it for one of my A2 topics. Admittedly, this means cutting out and laminating sets of counters for different questions or printing blank counters and using stickers to add questions to the counters. For languages and shorter questions, using a whiteboard marker to write questions onto the laminated counters might be an alternative idea. Enlarge the game board to A3 (150% so that the circles are the same size as the counters).
Students play in pairs or fours. I envisage that team one reads out the question to team 2 and if team 2 answers correctly, they place that question counter onto the game board. First team to get 4 in a row wins.
