1795. A Sane Tension in the Class



Kids love competitions and contests, so we can take advantage of this fact for them to learn and practice English. 

During puberty, say ten years old, they start to be aware of themselves and their capacities. 

Something I implement in classes from time to time is a competition. 

There are two players. They’ve got to say names of foods and drinks in English; the winner is the one who said the last item. 

Their classmates have eyes and ears so focused on this battle. 

Of course you can make this kind of contests concerning the vocabulary you are studying lately in classes, for example from their course books. 

The last student who’s thinking of a new item after many ones has ten seconds to answer, within a countdown. The climax is one with a lot of constrained tension, “Will he say something else?” (in Spanish) The atmosphere of the class is total immersion in English. / Photo from: scuba diving. travelandaman in
