A fun game for beginners to practise English
Here is a simple fun game for teachers to use with their young
beginners. The kids love it and it gets rid of inhibitions.
It isfantastic for beginners..
The game gives the students a fun way
to practise saying vocabulary repeatedly. It's ideal to practise
new vocab and for revision.
It works best for up to about 20 students. If you have a bigger
class you can do a demonstration first so everyone knows how to
play and then split the class into two or three groups.
Originally this game is a name game warmer. The class sit in a
circle game where someone is in the middle. The person in the middle
calls out someone's name three times as fast as possible and the
person whose name it is has to try to say their own name once
before the three repetitions are finished.
You do not need to sit in a circle - this is nice because all
students can see each other's faces, but it can also be played
while sitting at desks.
You may practise vocabulary by giving the person in the middle a
vocabulary picture to name three times. Students listen and must
try and jump in to say the word before the three repetitions are
up. The student saying the word first takes the place of the
pupil who said the three repetitions.
If you want your students to practise specific words you can
give pictures out for the words to be named, or you can write a
theme on the board and tell students to think up a word in that
theme. Students can only come into the middle if they have
thought of a word that has not yet been said. This avoids
everyone sitting waiting while someone tries desperately to
think of a word.
If the same students jump in time and again then put them in a
group together and let them work together as a "fast" group in
future. Or simply tell them that they cannot win every time and
must play one turn and take one turn out. Or make them judges
and in charge of a group.

| THanks alot Nisreen.
It's a very nice game. You Know children like games very much and teachers should varify their procedures while teaching to attract students attention and to instil knowledge and interest.
