Ideas for revision
|
Dear Colleagues,
I �m so happy that everything turned to normal on this site. At last I can ask you a question that I have in my mind for a couple of days.
How do you revise several units from a book? How much time do you spend with revision?
I usually use the revision sections from the books but I like using board games and several other games to revise both grammar and vocabulary. I like using the games as competitions among groups or just for pair work.
The reason I �m asking this is that one of my groups doesn �t like revision lessons. I really have a hard time with them when it turns to revision.
Can you suggest some new methods for revision? These revisions are usually followed by a big test.

Hi! Maybe those students who don �t like revision lessons don �t need to revise at all. I only review a content if I notice a common mistake in a group of students. But it never takes a lesson, only a small part of it. What about if you prepared a 2 or 3 exercises (no more than 15 minutes, correction included) similar to the ones you �re going to have in the test and told them so? Could it motivate them? Just an idea!
Have a good evening,
