LAW
(81 WORD TO PRACTICE)
About the Topic: Law
Law is a system of rules created and enforced by governments or social institutions to maintain order, justice, and peace within a society. It defines what is right or wrong and provides guidelines for how people should behave. Without law, communities would face confusion, inequality, and conflict.
There are many types of law: criminal law, which deals with crimes and punishments; civil law, which covers disputes between people or organizations; constitutional law, which defines the powers of the government; and international law, which governs relations between countries.
Law plays a vital role in protecting human rights, promoting equality, and ensuring fair treatment. For example, laws prevent discrimination, protect property, and define responsibilities in business or family life. Learning about law helps students understand their rights, duties, and the importance of ethical decision-making in modern society.
In an educational context, law-related vocabulary allows students to discuss global issues, analyze justice systems, and express opinions on moral and political debates.

Benefits of the BoomWords Game
The BoomWords Game is an engaging way to practice advanced law vocabulary. The teacher calls the topic “Law,” and students quickly name one word related to it — “justice,” “court,” “rights,” “constitution,” etc. The person who hesitates or repeats a word says “Boom!” and sits down.
This activity enhances:
Vocabulary retention through repetition and quick recall.
Critical thinking, as students connect abstract legal terms.
Listening and fluency skills, especially in multilingual classrooms.
Cultural awareness, as learners share how laws work in different countries.
Teachers can add challenges, such as asking students to use the word in a sentence or define it briefly before the next turn.
