Hi,
I am sure a lot of quality communication-related textbooks would have exercises and games incorporated to reinforce learning. You can use them or adapt them to suit your requirements. However, to get you going, here are a couple of games that you can play:
1. What's the Good Word (this used to be a popular game on DD in the good old days and used to be hosted by Ms. Sabira Merchant): Form teams of 2 or 3 or more, and one member is given a word. He/she will ideally give one-word clues to the word, and the team members have to guess it. This is a good way to reinforce learning of synonyms. By tweaking the same game, it can be used to learn antonyms too. For example, EGG - the clues could be yolk, hen, omelette, etc.
2. Forming sentences one word at a time by each subsequent participant in a row. Here, teams of 5-10 can be formed. A couple of words (e.g., knife, hot, shape, etc.) can be given to a person nominated as the Joker in the team. The first person starts with a word, and the next person is to tell another word so that there is continuity, and with each person contributing, a sentence can be made. The Joker does not utilize his word until a suitable situation arises where his/her word fits in. (Pay attention to the construction of the sentence and not to the logic or factual accuracy of the sentence formed. Useful to get beginners in the English language to get initiated into sentence formation.)
I trust these games will trigger more ideas for you to adapt, adopt, or innovate upon and make the learning interesting, exciting, and emphatic.
You may also find the contents of the following inspirational and motivational blogs useful to help improve vocabulary while also injecting a dose of optimism and self-belief:
