This quick PowerPoint game was used to review days of the week, verb phrases, and "when do you..."/"on..." for my junior high school 1st grade students.
First, put your students into groups. We usually play with groups of 3-5. Give each group a whiteboard and a marker. They can be in groups or remain in rows (for more social distancing). Then, review the example slide. You can go over the days of the week and "when"/"on" here. Explain the rules of the game.
Rules:
-Students will have 10 seconds to study the schedule (there is a countdown on the slide).
-When the 10 seconds is up, the schedule will be blacked out (automatic when the countdown ends). Then, they will be asked "When do you [verb phrase that appeared on the schedule]?"
-The groups can work together, but one person must write the correct answer: "On [day of the week]." Depending on the class level, you can give points based on the first group to write the correct answer and hold up their board (3 points for the first group, 2 points for the second group, etc.), or you can just give out points based on correct answers.
-There are 7 questions and they get progressively harder. The last slide (after "the end") is a blank template if you want to create your own slides.
Nice idea! will try with my students.
BTW Disneyland is one word.
This is a great activity. Thanks for saving me!
This is awesome.
I will edit with the Disneyland Correction.
Also add some when is and when does questions.
Eg. When is lunch? When does winter break start?
You just saved me life! Thank you!
