ESL Game - Concentration
By:kr
Title: Concentration
Type: Concentration Game
Target: Any vocab or conversation pattern
Materials: None
Procedure: Assign each student an answer to the conversation question
or a vocabulary word. This game works really well with remembering names so
your question could be ‘Who is ____?” The first person starts by saying “I’m
Chandra.” Then asks ‘Who is Eun Ji?” Then Eun JI answers ‘I’m Eun Ji. Who is
Min Young?” However, there is a rhythm that the students must clap and speak
to. First you slap your legs, the clap your hands, then snap your fingers with one
hand and then the other. The words of the sentence must go to the beats of the
rhythm. If a student doesn’t answer to the rhythm they are out.
