Title: Funky Mummy
Type: Active Game
Target: Health, Body parts, Halloween
Materials: toilet paper rolls, body picture cards
Procedure: Each group has one doctor. The rest are the patients. The patients
all do Rock-Scissor-Paper and the first loser picks a card from the pile. They
look at the card and then say “Doctor, doctor my ______ hurts” or “Doctor,
doctor, I have a _______” depending on the card they choose. Then the doctor
should say “Oh That’s to bad” and wrap that part of the patient’s body in toilet
paper. This continues until one student in the class is a complete mummy
(wrapped everywhere)
Comments: If they say "my eye hurts" or "my arm/leg/foot etc hurts," teach
them to use left and right. You can make the conversation longer, like "My arm
hurts!" "Which one?" "This one [holding left arm up]." or "My left arm." You
can also have a "where?" or "Where does it hurt?" and the student can point and
say "here." It gives advanced students a chance to practice a more
conversational conversation, instead of an exchange of one sentence each.
