Again, this is a random mix of games for all levels and ages. Many of the games were my own idea but most are from other teachers I have worked with so thanks to all the inspirational colleagues that have...

What�s He Doing? ask then draw
A very simple drawing I did in paintbrush many years ago but just rediscovered. I find the kids prefer the simple stick figures as it puts less pressure on them to be good artists.
Student A looks at the first picture, student B asks:
Where is _____? and then What is he/she doing?
Student A answers then student B draws.
The names can b...

47 Games List & basic instructions
I thought I would finally get around to writing this up. I have a list of almost 50 games that I use in different classes of different ages and levels. I have not put them in any particular order, just as I remembered them. I am sure even experienced teachers will learn at least a few new games. I have picked these up from other teachers mostly, bu...

Directions Pair Work Gap fil
While there are many maps on this site, I wanted a pair work activity so that one student will give directions and their partner will mark the final location on their map. Each map has opposite locations so they can�t actually use building names, which makes it too easy. This way, they have to talk about streets and which building. EG It�s the 3rd ...

Chinese School life
A simple little reading and writing task I made for a 1:1 student that could also be used to create a pair or class discussion. I included a little grammar transformation activity with might and usually just to add an extra task.
