This both makes it easier for them to understand the text because they have thought about the same topic for a while and seen some of the vocabulary in the True/False statements, and makes them more interested in hearing the text to check their own ideas. Before getting to the stage of looking at the True/False statements and guessing, however, students will still need some warming up. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

TikaTok - Classroom Book Publishing Mrs. Baia's Classroom: ESL Games - Sentence and Dialogue Structure : Speaking, Reading and Writing. We are learning the word "want" and revising activities and verbs in my current grade 5 unit "What do you want to do?" Most of the vocabulary is already known but the word want and sentence structure is a little shaky. So I thought a few sentence structure games would be an appropriate part 2 of the unit. Also, I noticed that in the Korean English exams they usually have a question that requires students to order a sentence or dialogue, so this is some good exam prep. These are simple to prepare but a bit of time required. After typing these up I printed and cut the question and answers into individual words and then pinned a question & answer pair together. Here's an example of one of the dialogues: Download here So we played the same style game, giving points to the groups who could do it the fastest, correctly.
