Flag of Self

Language Focus: Vocabulary and Spelling building

Usage Level: Level 3 - 5

Notes:

This is the combination of three skills in one game that can be introduced at once. The students will explore more on imagining how the words look like, knowing the letters that made up the words and say the correct pronunciation of the words. Plus to have the competition will make it merrier to be the best team.

Materials:

1. List of words and or flashcards in several setting and theme (kitchen, bathroom, dining room, fruit, animals, sports, etc)

2. blank sheets of paper

3. whiteboard along with the board marker

4. Colorful flags

Method:

The teacher may start with dividing the students into 2 groups of whatever number as you can possibly build. The students of each group make 2 lines facing the field. The teacher, then, stands in front, in the middle of the two groups. The game is started right after the teacher say or shows (in flashcards) the word that has to be written by the first member of each group without peeking. Each member of the group then must run to grab the group’s flag at the far post passing the table and chair challenge and return to the teacher to spell the word and write the exact form of the word on the whiteboard.

The winner is the group which gains the fastest time to collect the flags and also spell and write the words correctly.
