Student Discussion Activity

The following crossword covers an array of marketing terms and definitions. It is a fun and handy way to reinforce marketing terminology with your students.

Ideal as a team-based activity, and is more suitable for end of year/term revision (not really as an introductory exercise).

Teaching Tip: There are 50 questions in the crossword, so please allow sufficient time for your students to complete – and you might need to give some clues along the way.

Notes:

  • Boxes with two numbers – the first is across and the second one is down
  • For hyphenated words (listed in clues) the hyphen “-” has its own box
