Sentence Race


Level: Any Level
A good game for large classes and for reviewing vocabulary lessons.

Prepare a list of review vocabulary words.
Write each word on two small pieces of paper. That means writing the word twice, once on each paper.
Organize the pieces like bundles, 2 bundles, 2 sets of identical words.
Divide the class into 2 teams. Get them to make creative team names.
Distribute each list of words to both teams. Every student on each team should have a paper.  Both teams have the same words.
When you call a word, 2 students should stand up, one from each team. The students must then run to the blackboard and race to write a sentence using their word.
The winner is the one with a correct and clearly written sentence.
This is always a hit with kids. For more advanced students, use tougher words.

I have tested it and it is great fun!! Enjoy the activity. (Márcia Garcia)
