English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!

game of the week
Need a new challenge? Try practicing a dialog in a group with a timer. The rules are as follows: each person says one line of the dialog, CORRECTLY, before passing the timer on. The aim of the game is to not be the one holding the timer when the time runs out. This is not as easy as one would think, especially with the extra time pressure, so be warned. We had great fun with this one in class. Well done to those who managed to say the lines correctly and not get caught out!

Tana,
ReplyDeleteSounds like a cool game - think I'll have to try with some of my classes. I think it is really important to get students to respond quickly and naturally - heads up & interacting with the people they're supposed to be communicating with, don't you?!
Keep up the good work,
Jim
