    I've done this with as many as four teams. It gets pretty wild and energetic. It also helps to have a TD to help monitor to see who gets the point. I also get the kids out of their chairs and gathered around their seated team member.

    It is really interesting how students are playing with the game.
    Students are working on as a team and the two students are giving the answers.
    It is a good experimental for the social skills too.

    In the reality, they will tell the two students sitting in front of the answer in their native language. Thus, she keeps saying "No cheating" though.

    @rjerry7218 3 года назад +3

    There might be one problem: the low-level kids cannot give the clues while the other kids can. One of the solutions can be: give each ss a piece of copy with the words and easy explanation on so that each kid, even the low-level kids, can give the right explanation and can also help them to practice memorizing the meaning of each word.

      @rasleyrockson2128 4 года назад

      Maybe because they are from Hong Kong? (I'm not 100% sure but their accents are very Hongkongish)
      In Hong Kong, most of us have an English name, mostly given by our parents. We often call our classmates, friends and colleagues, especially the ones we're not very close with, by their English name, but not their Chinese one. Therefore, it's perfectly normal that the people around you every day do not know your "true name".

    Hello. I am
    an English teacher. I work in a public primary school in Ecuador ( I am Ecuadorian). I need help because my
    students are too unruly. I work with 2nd and 3rd grade . There are about 30
    students in each class. There are no resources in the school. The book we use
    is not good. What activities and strategies can I use? . I have used activities
    I have found on the internet. I use songs. But it is not enough. My students
    need more activities that engage them in the classroom. Please. Would you be so
