How to teach verbs in a creative and fun way?
 
I was asked to teach students every single verb from the textbook that we use in the school. They already know most of them, but I can �t think of a creative or funny way to engage students with them. What can I do? Help me dear colleagues.

You can play "Simon says" or try a guessing game with miming.

 dear Maggie
I once created a minibook on 25 basic verbs with some activities. Maybe you can get some inspiration from it. Here is the link:

 Write your verbs in small cards and put them all in a bag, ask your students to make teams and ask them to give a name for their teams, after that one member of each team pass to the front and picks up one card from the bag, he has to do the mimic for the action he got and his team has to guess what�s the action if they don�t get it the first time, it�s the turn of other team, and soo on until everybody pass or your set of cards end.
