TEFL (Almost) All Fun and ESL Games

[@olivialo1653]

I love how you have the kids explain how to play the games! Shows how you are a good teacher by making them tell you how to do things! I've never played the game connect four before, but I feel like it's a really fun game and want to play this with my students in Primary 6!

This an excellent of example of using games in the classroom to get the kids practicing, I am glad she included a student talking in English to explain, what a great way to have them practice conversation skills.

Games are so crucial to engaging students and keeping their interest- thanks for sharing some good ideas! It's great that your students can explain the games, they seem to really enjoy your class! Have you ever is a favorite among my students, I'll have to try some of these other ones out!

[@maryannthackrah4242]

WOW these games are fantastic. I am definitely going to use these in my classes. I think my favorite from here was using the projector for the Connect Four game. Genius!!

[@lisatorres246]

I played Alibi with my ESO and Bachillerato students the past few weeks and it was such a successful game! They really enjoyed it. I agree games are a great way to engage students! Especially since Spanish kids are so competitive!

[@jessicatatam2215]

YES the kids looooove playing games - as a language assistant we are so lucky that we can be as creative as we like with our lesson planning and we can incorporate SO many games! win win - the kids learn english, and they LOOOOVE having fun with you!!!

[@lukecarey3273]

I do love when you can integrate learning with games. It means that the students associate English with having fun.

[@amandareid921]

I love your connect four idea! I am always looking for fun ways to incorporate grammar into lessons and this is a great idea. My students are big fans of the Alibi game as well! It really gets them to think creatively and work together as a team!

[@nileve3516]

What I really don´t understand why Spaniards have such an awful English accent!!!....Lo que realmente no entiendo es porque los Españoles tienen un acento fatal en Ingles!!!

[@MeddeasEs]

Hi Eve. People try to learn and get immersed to improve their language skills, that's why Language Assistants are so important. Either way, I tend to feel the same about no-native Spanish speakers accents when speaking Spanish, but pacience is important in this case
