This activity can be played either with teenagers or even kids. It is engaging and brings active interaction into the classroom. All the students are involved in the activity at the same time. It is also exciting for the teacher as he has to create questions during the activity aside from those prepared. Finally it is competition among the student which works perfect most of the times. Enjoy.

This is a useful game for practicing vocabulary and antonyms.It might work best with intermediate level students. This game could also work with advanced level students, however it might not be that challenging.

Conceptually might work only for school kids. Great for facts learning and having fun

A simple game that takes kids from a consumer's role to more of a producer's role by changing parts in a movie. Might be challenging for kids with lower proficiency.

Listen to a sentence and then click the word that's asked for. Very basis level of reading. Might work well for beginning readers who already have a solid oracy skills in English like native speaking kids. 

You're a trader in an ancient city. A lot of reading invovled, with a few answer choices in the conversation. Might get alittle boring, but worth a try. 

This is an online game you can use if you use technologies in the class. Otherwise, you might print them out and provide handouts to your students. This game can be played in pairs or individually. Or you may want to divide your students into two groups. Provide with two boards or flipcharts and have two groups work separately within a certain time limitation to complete the assignment. The group that finishes first wins and gets a price, star, etc.

This is a good activity for practicing general questions. It might work best with elementary level students.

I have tried this one, it works :-)

This is a wonderful activity for developing students' listening, reading (skimming and scanning), speaking skills, as well as increasing vocabulary. it contains variety of activities which are based on the listening. Moreover, all the activities can be done both online and on paper (all materials are printable including the transcript of the audio). It contains a pre-watching vocabulary activity the story a comprehension activity a language activity about idioms I used this material with my two intermediate students. Though the level was lower I have decided to try. In order to help them I wrote down the words/expression that they might be unknown and discussed them before listening. Then they listened to the audio but still had difficulties to understand completely what the audio was mainly about. In order to solve the misunderstanding I have decided to give the transcripts to read while listening (It helped much to understand). I used the third activity to check whether they could scan and skim the information (they could as I guess reading helped them very much). The last activity was a multiple choice activity where the students should look at the given idioms and choose the best meaning. Suggestion- If your students are not high intermediate/advanced the process will be slowed down. Just use transcript and after listening discuss the text. It will help.

Might work well with kids learning to read in English. 

This is a nice speaking activity that could work with both intermediate and advanced level students. It helps the learners to practice their vocabulary, cohesion and transition words, as well as enables the students to use their creativity. This activity might also develop impromptu speech since the students are required to create their story orally, consequently there will be some spontaneous changes.
