Christmas Who Am I? This is a game that I created for my ESL students in Brazil. I have used it with adult students over the basic level. It is fun and can be adapted for other holidays/topics. It is great to teach about Christmas in the United States, Christmas vocabulary and also reinforce question formation. How to play: Cut up these papers and place them face down. Ask students to choose one and stick it on their forehead (THEY CANNOT LOOK AT THE PAPER THEY CHOSE). Now they have to guess who they are using only YES and NO questions. Go around the circle and each has one question. When they know who they are on the next turn they can say “Am I ____?” If they get it they win. When I played this I had various videos from the Internet on my desktop to accompany each one. This way they also learn Christmas songs and it makes it much more fun. (Example: first player (with Mrs. Claus on their head) says, “Am I a man?” the other players respond “No.” Then the next round she may ask, “Am I a woman?” and the other players will respond, “Yes.” It keeps going until all players have guessed which Christmas Character they are.
