Games in Partners

Pictionary: In partners, the students take turn drawing something on the whiteboard while the other student guesses. 'Is it a pig?' ' Yes, it is, No it isn't. variation: Good for reviewing vocab. Pick a S and show him/her a picture or whisper a word into his/her ear. The S draws the picture on the board and the first S to guess the picture gets to draw the next picture.

Categories: Teacher writes a category (jobs, food, sports) on the board. Students work with a partner to list as many items they know within that category. At the end of the game, if one team has the same thing listed as the other team, both teams have to cross out the word. Points are only earned if their word hasn't been used by other teams.

Running Dictation/Secretary: Stick any writing or dialogue outside the room. One member from each group is the secretary and the other runs and remembers as muchs as possible from the dialogue posted in the hallway.

Run and Ask the Teacher: The same idea, but instead the students run in the hallway and ask the teacher the questions from the worksheet given. Make it more exciting for the students by hiding in other parts of the school.

Fish: Before this game you need to have the students in pairs draw and cut out a picture of a fish for each pair. While they are doing that put 2 parallel lines of tape on the floor a few meters apart. Have Ss play in twos – each student behind a different line. T asks S1 a question. If the S answers it correctly s/he can blow once to propel the fish forward. Next, T asks S2. The S who blows the fish over the tapped line is the winner
