Aural games list (2)



Today I'm presenting further games you can do in your class with your students: they foster participation a lot, they're fun, the students practice fluency or a grammar aspect, they learn new words... So they are worth to apply. Of course, variations around the same game are possible.


11. Guess the meaning of a new word from the context (of a sentence, a text...).
12. Listening activities. For example, they listen to a text (or a paragraph) taken from the Internet, and comprehension (or the like) activities follow up.
13. All kinds of competitions. They like them a lot! For ex., a pair of students have to say the name of a job each time; the last in saying a job is the winner.
14. Dictionary game. The teacher says a word from a dictionary and the students have to guess its meaning.
15. The teacher describes his or her family, and later questions are asked to the students. Then a student can talk about his or hers and the others will have to answer questions.
16. Sentences exploitation. Elicit sentences from them and ask them wh-questions about specific parts of the sentences.
17. Unscrambling words.
18. Unscrambling sentences.
19. Elicit words about a topic and make a network.
20. They talk about a topic for X minutes, with a previous vocabulary it was elicited.
