5. How to deal with the mistakes or errors they’ve made?

12. Fun and games in the classroom
Vocabulary tennis
Choose a vocabulary topic the class has studied recently e.g. animals.
Divide the class into 2 halves, group A and group B, so that they are facing each other.
Each group elects a ‘speaker’.
The speaker for group A says the name of an animal e.g. lion.
Group B must then respond immediately, through their speaker, with another animal.
Group A must then respond immediately, through their speaker, with the name of another animal.
The process continues until one group can’t think of any more animals.

13. Chain vocabulary
Choose a vocabulary topic the class has studied recently e.g. animals.
Get the pupils to sit in circles with 7or 8 people in the group.
Each member of the group, in turn, must give the name of an animal.
If a group member can’t think of an animal, she/he drops out.

14. Grammar auction
Explain what an ‘auction’ is. Explain other key terms such as ‘bid’ and ‘budget’.
Tell the class you are going to sell them some sentences. Tell them how much money they have to spend.
Divide the class into pairs and hand out one worksheet to each pair.
Ask the learners to identify the correct sentences and to find the mistakes in each wrong sentence.
Explain to the class that they must buy as many correct sentences as possible.
Go through every sentence on the worksheet selling it to the highest bidder. Don’t tell them if the sentence is correct or not at this stage.
Go through the sentences again. Tell them which are correct and discuss with them where the mistakes are in the wrong sentences.
Find out which pair bought the most correct sentences.

15. Board pen relay
Procedure
Divide the class into 3 or 4 equal teams, with a maximum of 10 or 12 learners per team.
Divide the board so that there is a section for each team e.g.
Team Team 2 Team 3 Team4
Get each team to stand in a line as if they are forming a queue.
Give the first member of each team a board pen or a piece of chalk.
Explain that each team has to write a sentence on the board that is at least 10 words long. So the first member of the team runs to the board, writes one word and passes the pen or chalk to the second member who writes another word and passes the pen or chalk to the third member. The first team to write a complete, correct sentence wins.
Tips
It’s a good game to use at the end of a difficult or tiring lesson.
You can make the game more challenging by specifying that the sentence must include a particular structure e.g. present continuous.

16. Hot Seat
Procedure
Divide the class into two teams. The teams should be on different sides of the class, but as close to the board as possible.
Put 2 seats (hot seats) at the front of the class, one in front of each team, facing away from the board.
One member of each team sits in the hot seats (facing away from the board, but towards his/her.)
The teacher writes a word on the board (one class has recently learned) e.g. elephant. The teams have to get the team member in the hot seat to say this word by shouting clues to him/her e.g.
It’s a big animal… it lives in the jungle… it’s got big ears…it’s got a good memory.
The first team to get their hot seat member to say the word ‘elephant’ scores a point.
Change the hot seat members, then continue until you have finished your list of words. The team with the most points at the end wins.

17. Blockbusters
Aims: to revise vocabulary the class has recently learned.
Equipment/preparation
(a). A list of about words the class has learned recently
(b). A 5*5 square made from the first letters of the words they have learned recently (see fig. 1)
(c). Different coloured pens or chalk for the board.

18. Procedure
Write the first letters of 25 words the class has learned recently in a 5*5 square on the board. It doesn’t matter if you use the same letter more than once e.g.
Fig 1
G M N C S
C F H L H
E R T P R
H A A R T
S I S K W

19. Divided the class into two teams
Divided the class into two teams. Give each team a colour, say red or blue.
Explain that the letters are the first letters of words they have recently learned. Tell then you will give them a definition, explanation or example to help them remember the word e.g. If they have learned the word ‘apple’ recently, your question could be ‘What ‘A’ is a round and green fruit?’
The first team to shout out the right answer wins that letter and that letter is underlined in their colour.
If the blue team shout out the answer first, they get to choose the next letter on the square. Anyone can answer any question.

20. The objective of the game is for a team to make a connected line of underlined letters from top to bottom to side of the square. It can be a straight line, but it doesn’t have to be. See the examples in figs 1 and 2 below.

S I S K W

21. Tips
It’s a good idea to make a photocopied worksheet of all the words you use in the game to give to the learners after the game (you can use this worksheet for pronunciation practice or more detailed work on the words.)
It’s a good idea to prepare your definitions, explanations and examples of the words as it can be difficult to think of them on the spot.
It’s a good idea to have extra words beginning with the same letter in case neither team can remember the word in the square.
One possible problem with the game is that two or three players dominate. You might want to introduce a rule so that when a player answers a question s/he can’t answer the next one.

22. Pictionary
Divided the class into 2 or more teams.
One ‘representative’ from each team comes to the teacher and the teacher secretly tells them a word. The representatives go back to their team and draw a picture or do a mime to elicit the word from their team.
The first team to correctly identify the word gets a point.
Each team sends another ‘representative’ to the teacher.

23. Vocabulary Bingo 1
The teacher writes numbers on the whiteboard.
Each pupil copies 4 of the numbers.
The teacher reads out numbers from the whiteboard at random.
Pupils cross out their numbers as they hear them.
The first pupil to cross out all his /her numbers is the winner.

24. Vocabulary Bingo 2
The teacher writes words on the whiteboard which the pupils have learned recently.
Each pupil copies 4 or the words.
The teacher gives definitions or explanations of the words on the board at random.
Pupils cross out their words when they hear the teacher define or explain them.
The first pupil to cross out all his words is the winner.

25. Stop or continue?
The teacher chooses a text or dialogues the pupils have learned recently.
The teacher divides the class into 2 teams.
The teacher reads the first words of the story/dialogue and team A have to continue it word for word. They score one point for every correct word and they can stop when they are not sure what the next word is. If they continue and make a mistake they lose all the points from that turn.
Team B continue from where Team A stopped. When team B chooses to stop, team A start again, and so on until the story/ dialogue is finished. The team with the most points is the winner.

37. The pupils notice the different shapes in the first and second steps,and from the first and second step, we help the pupils to prepare for learning. While in the second step they are drawing the four different shapes, the teacher teaches the pronunciation of the shapes as well.
Pupils try to repeat for 2 or 3 times. These first three steps can help the students have the first awareness of the new vocabulary.
The following steps help the pupils to recycle using the main sentences and vocabulary in meaningful situation. 9

38. This unit is very good to help the pupils to develop their ability of observation and a sense of logic, why we adapt the following 4 activities, just because we would like to help the pupils to use their brain more and work with the Language more effectively…more details? Let’s go back! 11
