want to let you know that I make weekly teaching tips for teachers of English
language learners please consider hitting the subscribe button and the
notification bell so you don't miss a video in today's vocabulary game guess
the word your students are going to be able to practice vocabulary that they've
learned in class as well as practice proper sentence structure as well as
feeling more comfortable asking and answering a question all your students
are going to need to play this game is the worksheet that's linked in the
description below and although this game is set up for students of intermediate
level of language proficiency this game can be adapted for students at the
beginner and advanced stages of language as well as for any age group in order to
introduce this game to your students I recommend having one volunteer come to
the front of the classroom with their back to the board and you're going to
write a random word on the board so that they can't see it and have students ask
random questions in order to get the student to guess the word for example I
can write the word blue on the board and students can ask questions like what
color is the sky make sure that students do not gesture or give synonyms
however if you have students who are at the beginning level you can adapt it by
having them use gestures then tell your students that they're going to play a
similar game with a partner explain that they're going to work with their partner
and they're going to work as a team and they're going to try to ask
to elicit as many words on their worksheets divide the student into pairs
with one student being a and the other student be tell the students not to show
the worksheet to each other then you're going to have the class go through their
worksheet and try to come up with many questions as they can for their partner
based on the words that they have on their worksheet then when everyone is
ready you're going to give the class a five-minute time limit and let the game
begin students will begin by having student a ask as many questions as
possible to Alyssa as many words from their partner when student B says a word
that is correct student a will put a checkmark or a tick
next to that particular word please type yes in the comment section below or no
if you have ever played a similar game with your students in their class if
student B cannot guess that word after a couple of questions then student a will
put a cross on that word after five minutes are up students are then going
to stop and switch roles and then student B is going to ask questions to
student a to get as many of the worst checked off when everyone has to finish
the pair's are going to count up how many points they gained by the words
that they were quickly able to guess and then you're going to then compare which
pair in the group an entire class got the most scores and that student wins
and that's how the game gets the word is played if you found this game helpful
