Many teachers now try to use games as part of the learning process. Thoughts The children must already know the language so that they feel comfortable using it in a game Games as a reward for being good? Children can learn as much from a game as a grammar book How important is fun in the classroom? Competition? Can the teacher cheat to help the weaker students? What can go wrong? We use to many games We use games just for fun without thinking about the English content The teacher controls the game too much The lazy teacher uses the same game over and over with no new language. Give points!! We dont always want to have winners but when you do, how do you decide who is the winner? You can devide the children into teams for a longer time than just the game. So you can give and take points easily! Use a sport they like e.g. football. Divide the class into teams. When a child does the right action (etc.) she scores the goal. Too much of her own language and not enough English? an own goal! You could use the racetrack! Or a treasure maap! Any other ideas?? Dividing Primary pupils into teams Some innovative ideas for finding partners or making teams: Use ribbons Hold a bunch of ribbons in you hand, the students take an end each and pair up. Names from a box Pull all the names in a box and draw them out. Assign teams accordingly Line_ups Students line up and stand to the left/right of the teacher according to age/height/date of birthday etc One potato Students make a circle and play one potato, two potato, three potato, four, five potato, six potato, seven potato more. Extra ideas for Scoring Frogs crossing a stream. Each correct answer = a hop Draw a house. For each correct answer, add a ddor, window etc Climb a ladder. For each correct answer, the team moves up a rung. Games: Classroom language Now we re going to play a game Get into your teams please Find a partner Gues who Follow me Follow the instructions Its your turn Everyone take two blue counters Roll the dice Shuffle the cards Deal the cards Hand out the cards Pick up a card Go fish! Pick a number Move 3 places Skip a place Min a turn Wait until its your turn Go clockwise Go anticlockwise Change direction Who won? Games Alpha toss Pick 26 of the phonic cards and arrange in 4 rows-6,7,6,7. Give each card a point; the cards in the last row should have the highest points. Split the class into groups of five or six and give each group a bean bag or small stone/piece of chalk etc The groups take it in turns to throw their bean bag/chalk etc. onto the cards. To receive the points, the pupil must give a word starting with that letter or sound. The group with the most points wins. Blind-mans Treasure Hunt Wrap up the objects and place them in the sack. Split the class into teams of 5/6. The pupils take it in turns to pick an object and guess what it is. If they guess correctly, their team keeps the object. The team with the most objects at the end wins. The pupils must use the construction: it feels, it smells, it looks like.etc Postman All the pupils, except one, sit in a circle. Each person sitting has a card with a destination on it. The postman selects a postcard at random, and reads, I have a postcard from X to Y X and Y must change places. The postman tries to get a seat. The person left standing is the postman. The game continues until there are no more postcards. To catch a bank-robber Give each pupil a copy of a map and a counter. Tell them that a bank-robber is hiding somewhere in the town and you will give them directions to find him. As you give the directions, the pupils move their counters. Sentence/word scramble Split the class into teams of 5/6 and give each team a set of cards. The objective is to place the words/syllable in the correct order to make the sentence/spell the word. The team who completes the task first wins. Mister crocodile Choose one number of the class to be the crocodile. She/he stands at one end of the room. The others stand in a line at the other end. The space between is the river. The pupils chant to the crocodile, crocodile,crocodile we want to cross the river to see your ugly sister who looks like you The crocodile replies,only if you have the colour . The pupils who are wearing that colour must cross the river slowly and show the crocodile the colour. Those without that colour must then try to run across. If the crocodile catches a pupil, she/he becomes the crocodile and the game continues. This could also be adapted to the troll and the goats if you have read the Billy Goat Gruff story. Irish stew The pupils stand in a circle. Give each pupil a card with an ingredient on it. Sing, Were making irish stew, were making irirsh stew, hey, ho, the deary oh, were making irish stew.( sur lair du fermier dans son pr ) were looking for potatoes, were looking for potatoes, hey, ho, the deary oh, were looking for potatoes The pupil/s with potatoes go into the centre of the circle. Continue the song, but replace potatoes with carrots/mutton/ water etc. until all the ingredients are in the pot. Then sing, Lets cook the stew, lets cook the stew, hey, ho, the deary oh, lets cook the stew  ; $ w F S   t G H U V \ ^ i j 345OPüüüüüüü×ÑÊ| B*OJQJB*CJOJQJ CJOJQJ B* OJQJB*CJ$CJ>*B* CJ(OJQJ>*B* CJ(OJQJ>*B*CJ(OJQJ CJOJQJOJQJ56CJ OJQJ B*OJQJB*CJ$OJQJB*CJ$OJQJB* CJ$OJQJ CJ$OJQJB*CJ$OJQJ0;<=6pMt & F$;<=6pMt,-j Ž{xroli  T      !"j            ;  u      (,-j   $ u v w D E F S  & F   $ u v w D E F S  Z   7 F f t   - > H I J K L M N O P s       yz{ n  = ;  Z   7 F f t  & F   - > H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V \ ] P Q R S T U V \ ] ^ i j fg  345OPMeJ  O*PWKL D J] ^ i j fg  345OPMe  KLCJ B* OJQJ B* OJQJ B*OJQJ B*OJQJOJQJ B* OJQJ CJOJQJJ  O*PWKL D' 01h.
