I put recently taught vocabulary on the board ( 10 - 12 words ). I then place two students 2-3 metres away from the board. I say the word. First student to swat the word, gets the point. I then give an extra point if they can use the word in a sentence. This is a great game and the students always get excited.
Thank you, Gary! Great idea! Yes, it is better to place the students at a distance from the board. Unfortunately, I don't have enough room to do it in my classroom.
Hello Teacher Val. My name is Kamran. I'm from Azerbaijan and introduced this game to our team. We played your games with Teacher Nigel and we really liked them. Thank you very much for your very interesting content! Please continue to share any interesting games with us!
Hello,teacher (of course the best,the funniest,the most creative) Val!We get that powerful point and energy you send us through your super video lessons! Especially now at the last several days of the school year when pupils are mostly tired this game is perfect for them,really and even gives them energy !!! Thank you very much!
i'm going to teach french to some beginner students (tennagers) in China too. I think the first game could be great ! But not sure for the second, they might be too old for it (?). Thanks for these ideas Teacher Val.
@@Joker-zl9ng No, I don't think I do. I am scared. Lol. I am sure it will pay off in the future. What you are doing now is called "wise investment". :)
