The Gerund Conversation Game
This really needs to be printed out in landscape for it to look right. This is a game that students play in groups of about 4. You just need a dice and markers for moving around the board. The students read the question aloud and answer using a gerund. I usually have students pick 5-10 questions to interview a native speaker as a follow-up for home...

Halloween Superlative Taste Test
My students enjoyed this activity last Halloween. I brought in 4 different types of candy for them to describe. They then voted on what candy I provided the kids at Halloween. I recommend using 4 very different types of candy. I used Paydays, Nestle Crunch, Reeses and Skittles. This will give them a lot to compare.

Gerund Pairing Activity
This is a great warm-up or lead-in when introducing Gerunds after prepositions. Cut up the cards and students find the partner that completes their question. I have students share their questions and answers with the class as I uncover the questions on an OHP. Then the pairs share their answers with the class.

We review wh-questions versus the yes/no versus the present perfect questions. It�s a great grammar review and warm-up too. You can have students circulate and try to get a BINGO or see ...

This game with answer key is an adaptation of Paula A.�s fantastic Halloween Brain Challenge. There are 7 different activities. I�ve shortened some of the activities, so think of this as the shortened version of the other one. My students loved it last year and I�m looking forward to doing this shorter game this year. It should take about 45 minute...

Thanksgiving Brain Challenge
I downloaded Paula A.�s fantastic Halloween Brain Challenge, and my students loved it so much that I created a Thanksgiving Brain Challenge as a follow-up. They really liked that too. My version isn�t as pretty as Paula�s (sorry!), but with her blessing and permission I am sharing it. I hid the tasks around the room and created clues that a volunte...
