Chinese whisper. You have your students seated in a group or a couple of groups and you whisper the vocabulary word you want to say. Each student has to whisper to the next, until the last student. The last student has to run up to the board and write down the vocabulary word correctly and quickly before the other team does.
you probably dont care but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost the password. I would love any help you can give me.
Great ideas, thank you! I'd like to add that "reversed charades" even work better than ordinary ones since everyone is definitely involved in this way. What I mean is that instead of one student showing and others guessing, it is done in the reversed way, one student is guessing and all the other students are showing. It's really fun!
Noon-chi Game. Teach a sentence such as "I went to school yesterday." Students should stand up one at a time and say each word in the sentence in order. So the first student says "I" and the next student says, "went" and so on. If two or more students stand at the same time they are out and you start over from the beginning of the sentence. I will usually start the game by asking a question such as, "What did you do yesterday?" The game starts after the teacher asks the question. If a student says the wrong word then they're out. Play until you complete the sentence or all the students are out. You can also use numbers, the students' names, or almost anything instead of a sentence. When you use numbers, usually the last student that remains sitting is out.
There are two games that we like to use. The first one is the MAD MINUTE , You draw a line on a the board or a notebook. then you set up a target question and your student has to give a 1 minute answer. We usually use WhatsApp to record it. The line on the board is there to grade the activity, you add lines above the line for every complete sentence or phrase and then you add lines below the line for every filler they use. (UMMS). The idea is to add them all up at the end and divide to get your score. Example in a minute she said 16 phrases and used 5 fillers. 16 divided by 5 gives you a score of 3.2 for the student.
Hello there! I'm a teacher of English. I really like your games. I've been teaching for 15 years now. I use board race and charades most of the time. Thanks
Hello I'm also a teacher in spain with the auxiliare de conversación program. I have done an altered version of charades where it's explaining the word instead of acting it (to improve their speaking skills) and they loved it. additionally, I'm going to use your other games thanks 😊
Im not an english teacher. Im a nurse who works with kids everyday. And i love this idea for my english activities especially on weekends. Thanks a lot
I've always wanted to teach in Spain, I'm currently in china and have been for 5 years teaching. The only thing holding me back is that in Spain the pay is extremely low compared to china (from what I've researched) but if anyone has any tips or advice please let me know.
The second game is about learning how to say something when you don't remember what it is. You give them a word or a phrase and they have to use other vocab to get their idea across.
this is the game i had played years ago, teacher says a word, and points a student to start the game, the students have to say a word with the last letter of the words they say, for example if someone says "minute" the other must say a word from E. this would help our spelling and writing.
I didn't get the taboo game very well. Would yoy explain to me coz I'm gonna create an English club in the school where I teach and I am looking for a lot of games
I'm sorry, i didn't get the first game. The point gets those team whose partisipant said the correct answer first? or both team can get a paint at the same time?
Thanks for your reply! Choose one student to have a "secret" vocab words in front of the class. He/she has to act it out without speaking and the other students guess. Whoever gets it correct is the next actor! 😊
Thanks! :) I did a Black Out Poetry craft with middle and high schoolers a while back and they loved it! They take an old book and circle words to make poems.
@@RUclipsallowedmynametobestolen the students need to provide some clues while avoiding the words in the card. This restriction makes the game a little harder.
@@achromatic6279 Oh, so kind of avoiding things that would be too easy or make the answer too obvious? That's great! Lower level players can use them, higher level players can't. I love finding ways to make a single game appropriate for multiple levels of participants. Thanks, Achromatic!
Thanks for your comment! The students are supposed to explain the word without saying it. I usually do a few examples by saying things like "This is an animal that lives in the ocean. It is big." (Whale). In real taboo, you can't say the other words, but since most students' vocabulary isn't large enough for that, the other words on the page help students come up with ideas (since giving the word alone, might also be too challenging, depending on your group). I hope this makes sense! Thanks for watching! :)

The only thing holding me back is that in Spain the pay is extremely low compared to china (from what I've researched) but if anyone has any tips or advice please let me know.
Hello! Any ideas for adults? I teach private students and it's one on one...most games are for groups :(
Those are the worst lol
Great Channel!
Love how you give us tips
The second game is about learning how to say something when you don't remember what it is. You give them a word or a phrase and they have to use other vocab to get their idea across.
I guess you refer to the 3rd game Taboo
Go Englis

Thank you ❤
Great Ideas Mam😍
fantastic ideas, thanks for sharing :-)
Great job 💙
These are great! Thanks :)
Wonderful
That's so interesting
But could you please explain more about taboo cards?
For the last game, maybe it's similar to a game named English Whisper? Or is it different? I haven't understood carefully..
Just what I've been looking for. Thank you
I didn't get the taboo game very well. Would yoy explain to me coz I'm gonna create an English club in the school where I teach and I am looking for a lot of games
Hi.. Thanks alot for your tips.. It helped me alot
that's great thanks
I'm gonna use the category one with my language partner. thank you so much :)
Nice
Thanks for this 🤍🥀
I'm sorry, i didn't get the first game. The point gets those team whose partisipant said the correct answer first? or both team can get a paint at the same time?
Yes, the point goes to whoever said it first. Sometimes if it's a tie I'll give a point to both teams. Hope that helps!
Thank you for your great ideas😊 They are really wonderful!
In Spain?? How has your experience been there? I teach in Korea and feel like I would LOVE Spain!
Cool! Teaching in Spain is a lot of fun! It doesn't pay well, but the lifestyle is worth it! I would love to go to Korea!

Thanks for these ideas!! I think I didn't get the idea of charades pretty well, but the others I loved them!
Thanks for your reply! Choose one student to have a "secret" vocab words in front of the class. He/she has to act it out without speaking and the other students guess. Whoever gets it correct is the next actor! 😊
hey . just came across your page nd totally loved it 💕 can you suggest some game for teaching poetry or prose as well ?

Volume too slow. But great content.
Thanks for your feedback!
Hi mam
Why do you look and sound cute and sweet?
Alright ... -_-
Youvare talking so faster it is impossible to understand well
There's something I don't understand.
"In real Taboo, you're not supposed to say the words under the target word."
What ARE you supposed to say or do?
I think you're supposed to say the words under the target and let the students guess the target word.
@@Zak_959 That's what I would have assumed. Maybe she mis-spoke?
Anyway, thanks for the response.

BAD TEACHER - don”t teach vocabulary! Instead, teach PHRASES.
I didn't find it useful at all. I take better activities/games in my class
