MATERIALS NEEDED:
- Scrap paper for taking notes.
DETAILED EXPLANATION:
- Students first need to learn "to" in "0 to 100".
- Split class into groups of 4-6.
- Students play Janken. The winner gets to choose a secret number (write it down!) and doesn't have to guess.
- Students take turns guessing a number. After each number is guessed, the student who chose the secret number has to tell the others the current range (they may take notes):
(the secret number is 23)
Student A: 81
Chooser: 0 to 81
Student B: 22
Chooser: 22 to 81
Student C: 25
Chooser: 22 to 25
- The student who got the number right loses. (The game is DON'T guess the right number)
- The student who lost gets to choose the next number and the game continues.
VARIATIONS:
- The loser has to say the ABC's or some English phrase (I like apples).
TEACHING SUGGESTIONS:
- Encourage students to take notes so that they won't forget what the upper or lower limits are.
