MAGIC 8 BALL, more TOYS at CLASS ???
|
Does anybody know any TOY which can be used in ESL class? Any more ideas?
I use cheap jigsaw puzzles
and I write present and past irregular verbs AT THE BACK. Kids must put
the right verbs together and the verbs follow ABC -- eg: buy-bought -
bring - brought - catch - caught - do - did - fight - fought...
When
the puzzle is completed, we put puzzle between 2 sheets of paper and turn it
"face up". We can see if all the verbs are correct, as the photo is
OK...
DO YOU USE ANY CHEAP "TOYS" AT SCHOOL? WHICH? WHAT FOR?
---
I have to state that the idea of my Magic 8 Ball comes from Frenchfrog.
Thank you Frenchfrog. I had read her topics here:
http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=8827
http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=9274
She suggests to buy the plastic Magic 8 Ball.
For those who cannot get the plastic one, you can play the Magic 8 Ball online, I have sent some links or you can make your own - paper one... The links for online Magic 8 Ball are in the last message of the first link...
Sorry  for not mentioning Frenchfrog before. She always has so good ideas!
We played with Magic8Ball today and we laughed for ages.
Question: Does Tom often bite his nails? Answer: Better not tell you now.
Q: Did Ema cheat yesterday? A: It is certain!
Q: Can I kiss my teacher? A: Go for it!
I strongly suggest to practise ALL TENSES, not future tenses ONLY.
FRENCHFROG, YOU ARE THE BEST! THANKS FOR THE IDEA!!!
Sorry for not mentioning the source...

Moravc..... Thank you sooo much for this fabulous game!! I downloaded it yesterday! I was actually really happy when I saw it because I remembered that, when this was mentioned in the post about the Magic 8 ball, I thought: ´what a pitty I don �t have one! (After I understood that it was a ball, not a hand made object).
It �s fantastic that you made this into a printable. I �m so looking forward to use with my students!
Hugs! Have a super day!

I use a regular ball to practice words
and sentences. When catching the ball students have to say in English... For the right answer they may make 1 step forward.
Another
things are rubber toys to practice animals and their description,
children may bring photos, and you may use puppets (hand ones) for
various purposes.
I got this private message. Interesting... Any more ideas about TOYS?
