Games to practise Vocabulary
Shopping: Write the names of some different shops on the board.
Food Store, Electrical Store, Furniture shop
Go round the class and each student has to name something they would buy in that shop.
Student 1: bread
Student 2: light
Student 3: table
This can also be done with rooms of the house: bedroom, kitchen etc. Students have to name something they would find in each room. Try a visit to the zoo or farm, in the city.
You can change the tense of the sentences eg: I bought, I �m going to buy, I found, I have, I saw.
or increase the length eg: I went shopping and I bought ......., In the kitchen I found a.......
The variations are endless, depending on the vocabulary you want to practise.
Shopping 2: This is more difficult- Alphabetical order (it may help to write the alphabet on the board)
Student 1: I bought an apple
Student 2: I bought an apple and a banana
Student 3: I bought an apple, a banana and a c....... etc. See how far your students can get before they forget an item.
