Games
Heads up
This hilarious game is an excellent interactive tool to use when teaching an adult ESL course. The game encourages students to use a variety of verb tenses and descriptive vocabulary.
The game can be played with as many teams of two as you have in your class. To play, one team member holds the smart device or index card to their forehead.
This student does not know what is written on the card. It is the job of the other teammate to describe the card without saying any of the words that are printed on it.
Build-A-Sentences
Students needs to begin with a basic sentences and add on to it
For example, let’s say the original sentence we give students is The dog barked. We can then ask students to build on to that sentence, one grammar concept at a time.
