Hot Potato Digital (E.S. Level)

Simple game to help students to practice vocabulary or sentences.

Directions.

Teacher sends the file to all students' tables.
When the students open the file the board will automatically start. (4 students can play using only one tablet).
Click "ESC" to turn it off.

How to play: (Basically follow the same rules of the classic "Hot Potato" game, or add variations as you wish)

Basic idea;

First every student pick a corner on the tablet. (assuming that all tablets have a touching screen system)
Teachers either play a song or set a timer.
Students say a key word or a sentence before passing the potato. Ex1: Bananas, pass, Apples, pass: Ex2 I like bananas, pass, I like apples, pass etc...
Students click on the red arrow and the potato will move to the left, or if students click on the green arrow the potato moves to the right.
Play until the music stops or the time is over.

Obs: There are 3 slides. To switch from slide to slide just click on the right arrow on the keyboard, or swipe the screen from right to left.
Slide 1, four players. Slide 2, three players, Slide 3, two players.

You can also play an elimination round. Starting with 4 players then, 3 then final match between 2 players.
