Throw a ball to a student and ask him or her a question.
The student answers and throws the ball to another student
asking the same question. For example, ask Can you…?, Yes,
I can. / No, I can’t. Do you like…?, Yes, I do. / No, I don’t.
2. Beat the Clock!

Write the days of the week or months of the year on cards.
Time the students as they race to put the days of the week or
month cards in order. The fastest student is the winner.
Games
3. Bingo and Colors

Prepare bingo cards (or print out the Bingo Card, on the
Teacher’s Resource CD). Draw five to six squares on each
card. Distribute the bingo cards and have students color each
square with a different color. Next, call out the colors one by
one, and encourage students to cross out the corresponding
square if that color is on their cards. Continue playing until
someone has crossed out all the colors on his or her card.
Encourage the student who finishes first to say Bingo!
4. Bomb!
Have students sit in a circle. Pass a ball around the circle. Play
some music. Stop the music. Encourage the student holding
the ball to answer a question, make a sentence or say a word.
Games
5. Charades
Divide and line up the class into two teams. Choose a
member from each team to come to the front. Whisper a word
to the two students and have them act it out. The first team to
call out the word their partner is acting out gets a point.
6. Color Game
Place pieces of origami paper (or colored paper) of different
colors in a circle. Play some music and have students walk
around the circle. Stop the music and have all the students
sit down next to a color. Pick a color and ask Who is beside
the color (red)? If you are next to the color (red), please stand
up. Encourage the student next to the color to stand up.
Continue until all students have participated.
Games
7. Days of the Week Game

Divide the class into teams of six or seven students. Have
each team take turns (one at a time). Have the playing team
stand in line, facing you. Assign each student a day of the
week, at random. Say Go! The students must rearrange
themselves in the correct sequence as fast as they can.
8. Do You Have a…?

Have students sit in a circle. Show them a flashcard or picture
of a giraffe. Say Look, this is a giraffe. Ask a student if he
or she has a giraffe. Ask Do you have a giraffe? Encourage
students to answer. Have that student ask the person next
to him or her. Continue in the same manner until all students
have participated. Change the type of animal and play again.
Games
9. Draw and Guess

Start drawing a picture of an object, person or animal on the
board slowly. Encourage individual students to guess what it is.
10. Erase the Number

Write numbers on the board (for example, 1 to 10). Pair up
students and give each student an eraser. Have both of them go
to the board. Then, say Erase number (two, five, etc.). Encourage
students to erase the number before their partner does.
Games
11. Family Members

Have students come to the front. Assign each student the
role of a family member. Then, name a family member and
have the corresponding students step forward.
12. I Spy
Place some real objects or pictures on the floor. These
should be big and small objects in colors students are
familiar with. Say I spy with my little eye (point to your eye)
something big. Students guess what object you are talking
about. Encourage them to hold up or touch the object and
name it. You can also play this game using the posters.
Games
13. Listen to the Number

Have three students come to the front of the class. Give
each student a card with a number written on it. Review the
numbers as a class. Next, say the numbers at random and have
the student holding the corresponding number step forward.
14. Pass the Secret

Have students sit in a circle. Show them that they have to
whisper to the person next to them. Start the secret by
whispering it to the student next to you. Say, for example, It’s
cold. Have the students pass the secret around the circle. The
last student says the secret aloud. Compare how close it is to
the original secret.
Games
15. Shapes
Get a beanbag and make big paper shapes of colored paper
(blue, yellow and red). Place the paper shapes on the floor.
Have students sit around the shapes. Point to each one,
and have them identify each shape and its color. Then have
students take turns tossing the beanbag onto one of the
shapes. Have students describe the shapes. Ask, for example,
What shape is it? Is it a triangle? Is it a square? What color is
it? Elicit answers from students.
16. Simon Says

Play Simon Says as a review. For example, say Simon says
touch your face. Encourage students to touch their faces. Say
Touch your eyes. Make sure students do not move, because
the sentence does not start with Simon says. When a student
makes a mistake, he or she must wait until the next round.
Games
17. The Animal

Get pictures of up to six animals students are familiar with
and a big die. Display the pictures on the board and write a
number from 1 to 6 next to each picture. Have the students
roll the die, help them say the number and the animal it
belongs to, according to the information on the board, and
encourage them to act like the animal.
18. Where’s the…?

Tell students to close their eyes. Then hide a stuffed animal, a
ball or any other object around the room and have students
take turns trying to find it.
