With this board game you
can practice QUESTION WORDS as well as the basic tenses (Simple Present,
Present Continuous, Simple Past) in interrogative form.
You'll need dice and
tokens. Print the board as it is, print and cut out the cards. Laminate if
possible! To save ink, don't print the background and border. It looks nice
anyway ;-)
Play in pairs or groups of four. The
players throw the dice to move on the board. As they land on a square they pick
up a card from the pile. They have to make a question using the question word
they've landed on and information from the card. It's possible to make more
than one questions using the information on each card. E.g. for the card that
says "Ted didn't watch the football
match last night because he fell asleep"
you could ask:
·
Who didn't watch..?
·
What didn't Ted watch?
·
What did Ted do last night?
·
Why didn't Ted watch...?
etc
Students who cannot form a correct
question, put the card at the pile of used cards and wait for their turn to try
with a new card on the same square, without moving. If they get it right they
can move when their turn comes again.
On squares marked with an
"?" they make open questions.
Should they run out of cards before
the game finishes, they can reuse the used ones. The same cards will be used in
different ways on different squares anyway. For larger groups you might want to
add some cards with your own sentences. This set, however, is definitely enough for 2 players (or 2
teams).
As always, the first to reach the end
(the house) wins.
Play and enjoy!!!
