•
Pupils get ten questions to guess the answer before it is revealed, and a new round can begin.
•
The teacher may choose a volunteer to lead the game or ask pupils to play in small groups/pairs.
22. Context Clues
•
Have pupils work in small groups/pairs to choose at least 4 words form the list. They should
write one sentence in English using each word in their notebooks.
•
When pupils are finished, say the words one by one and ask volunteers to read the sentences
they wrote. If no pupil/group chose a particular word, create a sentence together as a class.
23. 1, 2, 3 Follow Me
•
Say a command using the imperative form (positive or negative) and have the pupils do the
action.
•
Have all pupils stand up at the start of the game. During the game, have pupils who don’t follow
the command correctly sit down.
24. One at a Time
•
Show the review words or hide them for a challenge.
•
Choose a word. Don’t tell the pupils the word you chose. Begin by writing the first letter of the
word on the board. Have pupils guess which word you are writing. After a few seconds, if pupils
haven’t guessed correctly, add the second letter. Continue until pupils guess the word, or you
have written the complete word on the board.
•
Play a few rounds to practice different words. The teacher may choose a volunteer to lead.
25. Clue
•
Have pupils work with a partner or a small group to scan the story in their Course Books. Give
pupils clues and have pupils write down where they found each picture or word (page number).
More than one possibility for some clues is possible.
26. Acrostic Poem
•
Before doing the activity, ask pupils to say any words they associate with a word of your
choosing. Encourage responses in English and write any words or phrases on the board using
vocabulary they know (remind pupils of the recently reviewed words to help them). Pupils may
respond in L1 if needed; help them translate their responses and add them to the board.
•
Write the chosen word in capital letters from top to bottom on the board.
•
Work as a class to write an acrostic poem. Write one word or phrase beginning with each letter
of the chosen word. Use the brainstorming ideas to help.
•
Alternatively, have pupils work in small groups/pairs to write their own acrostic poems in their
notebooks. Pupils may use the brainstorming done by the class, the glossary in the back of the
Course Book, or any other words they associate with the word. Accept any
•
logical additions to the poems.
