This is a game that teaches vocabulary on three certain topics. It has different levels. Though the first level of the game is"EASY" it is not as easy at it may seem. From my experience the first level of the game is appropriate to intermediate level students.

Knowing synonyms is important for L2 language learners in order not to repeat the same words in writing or in speaking. Although it is designed for the elementary level, I advise this activity for intermediate level because I experimented with children in elementary level I saw that the words are a little bit more sophisticated.

This is a fine activity for different level students. there is choice among the levels appropriate to each category. I tried this with upper level, and it was a success. The game is both interesting and effective in the sense of language learning.

This is a quite good activity to practice spelling and typing speed. Intermediate and advanced level of students may find it useful and fun. It may also develop word stock of the learner. It has tree level of difficulty; easy, medium and hard. I myself tried all of them and the hard level met my needs and abilities. Try it and improve your spelling and typing speed.

This game is for students of advance level. It promotes the students' vocabulary skills.

The activity is to develop vocabulary in certain limited topics. This could be applied for from intermediate level, since the words in charts do not usually met often. I would add that the student knew some names of flowers and anilmas, but the rest of the words were difficult and unknown to him.

The game gives an intermediate ESL learner an opportunity to revise his/her knowledge about past tense. This game provides some 'context' where the student can practice his/her knowledge. There is also a level of difficulty in this game i.e. a player can choose from the provided three pts and find the level corresponding to his/her level of language competency. I piloted it with one of my students and he chose the easiest pt and succeeded. After he tried the medium pt and lost 4 points for incorrect choice of form. He tried to do the most difficult one but he did not understand some words in context and couldn't gain needed scores. I would advise EFL teachers to use this game because it enhanced, engaged and motivated my student in language learning.

A very interesting game to practice Past Simple, both irregular and regular verbs.

This is a very good activity to improve vocabulary. What is more interesting and even important about this site is that while you play, you can earn grains of rice for each correct answer that will be donated for charity, to help stop hunger in the world. You can also play with grammar here (free rice grammar).There are 60 levels for vocabulary and 5 levels for grammar. They increase by difficulty as you proceed. While trying this with my students, what was so exciting for them was that they learned by answerng correctly they are particpating in a humanitarian act and this greatly motivated them to answer the tests and learn new vocabulary. Though we did just the first 2 levels, the next session almost all of them said that they kept playing it to collect more rice and for this they had learned a large number of new vocabulary. They also said they are gonna play it again when finished both to collect more rice for hunger as well as review what they had learned.

interesting and motivating activity. Just like your Ss I had the feeling that I'm helping hungry people. I wish I could!

Actually Armineh jan u did if you collected 100 grains of rice. I've checked the legitimacy of the cite and it is run by UNICEF.

the activity is pretty challenging. It fits intermediate and higher level students. One can choose the topic, there is a range of it, then go on guessing a word. usually there are 7 guess chances which did motivated the stduent. He really enjoyed the activity, however I think students will enjoy even more if they have already some knowledge of the topic, then it gets really interesting.

This game involves reading and recognizing these items in order to make a face. My sister is an intermediate level student, however she liked it for practicing the vocabulary.

Vocabulary is Fun! Just ask learners! This game enables high school students to practice homophones and insert the right answer for the question asked. It has several levels of difficulty, so the players are free to chose the level they can manage. I think, this game is very educational for foreign learners, as well.

While surching this site I found a lot of good material about social networking which can be presented to advanced level learners. I showed some of the animations to my mother and sister and then translated them as they don't have advanced level of English. They liked the animations and videos, the way they presented the concept.

This game is intended for intermidiate level of EFL students who may practice Present Perfect Tense, play it, forming sentences with the words of each colomn that offers them, pay attention to the correctness of the formed sentence, because if wrong words are picked from the colomns, they won't go ahead and will be stuck. It helps to revise the students' grammar competence and stay in a good shape:) Strongly recommended for higher level of learners!

This game focuses on the use of definite and indefinite articles. It is designed for low lintermediate level learners who have problems with using correct articles.

I haven't tried this game yet, but it's definitely for grown-up kids and adults with advanced level of English interested in sciences and medicine.
