  • What games do you play to help your students with English?

    The game I play that seems to be a hit is what I call dictionary wars. Each students holds their dictionary in the air between their hands. I conceal what I am writing on the white board and then write a word. I keep it covered, build some excitement and then the reveal. The first student to find it, raise their hand and tell me the definition wins. I speak some Thai, but also have a Thai teaching assistant to verify the Thai definition.

    I am wondering what games you play with your students? Board games or class competition or what?

    I will leave the teaching to those of you that wish to do so. In the meantime, I will be relaxing whilst you teflers chase the Thai kids around the schoolyard. It is not that I am above such endeavors, but I have neither the time nor the patience for nonsensical youths being forced to learn a language they care naught about.

      I used to play a version of the dictionary game. I would hold the dictionary above their heads and ask for the definintion of a word. If they got it wrong I belted them with the dictionary. If they got it right I belted them with the dictionary for being a swot. Great fun for me. Laughed till I cried.

      Another great fun game was ' todgers ' used for practice with comparatives and superlative forms of adjective.

      The male students stand up and put their todger out on their desk. The females then have to go in turns forming a sentance using any adjective in either its comparative or superlative to describe any todger they like e.g

      ' Leks todger is blacker than Somchais "
      ' Dengs todger is the smallest '


      Etc etc. The girl who cannot think of a new adjective about the todger she is describing has to give it three tugs.

      Great game and very popular with uni students.

        I pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday! Then I get on my knees and pray, we won't get fooled again!
