DETAILED EXPLANATION:
- After teaching the students the grammar "Do you like...? / Yes, I do. / No I don't." tell them that in their class there are 8 bananamen and that their job is to find as many as possible in 5 minutes and write their names on the worksheet.
- Get the students to put their heads down on their desk and once you're sure that they're not peeking, walk around the class and tap 8 students on the back to choose the bananamen.
- Instruct the students to wake up and then explain that they have to walk around and ask their friends "Do you like bananas?" in order to find the 8 bananamen. If the student was tapped on the back, they answer "Yes, I do." If the student wasn't tapped they answer "No, I don't." They have to write the names of the bananamen on their worksheet.
- Round 2, if you choose to use it, has the students searching for 8 Marios by asking, "Do you like mushrooms?"
VARIATIONS:
- You can also use this concept for the grammar point "Are you a...?" I used it for Halloween and I had 4 ghosts (1 touch) and 4 vampires (2 touches). The kids absolutely loved it.
TEACHING SUGGESTIONS:
- This game is good at the start to practice the keyword before introducing a lot of vocabulary. Follow up this game with the stitch 'Do you like?' interview game on this site and you have a full 45 minute lesson.
