Find the Hidden Animal - 3 views

  •  
    This game is designed for low intermediate EFL learners. The game is very interesting one, becuase the player is motivated to guess the hidden animal until it appears in full picture (there are three choices for each hidden animal and when the player chooses one of them, the computer either makes green or red line in the word and also pronounces that word). So, this game can also help learners gain right pronunciation skills. I used this game with my neighbour (11-year-old boy) and he was interested in guessing the pictures and tried to pronounce the word after the computer prounced them. I would suggest ESL teachers to use it because it enhanced my neighbour's vocabulary and improves his pronunciation. skills.

Game- How do you know jobs? - 2 views

  •  
    This game is designed for high intermediate EFL student. Through this game, EFL learners can revise their knowledge of job descriptions. This game can be played by one player or two players. Accordingly, it will also promote collaboration between learners. An EFL intermediate learner had a chance to choose one of the provided choices and decide whether it corresponds to the job description provided in the game or not and accordingly, to gain particular score or not. I tried it with my brother's wife (24 year-old) and she in some cases guessed the write answer. She had some difficulties because of some words used in job descriptions. Though, she tried to understand the word in context and guess the meaning. I would suggest my peers to use this educational game because it promotes L2 learners language skills in terms of enhancing their vocabulary.

GAMES - past tense - 8 views

  •  
    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.

Fruit Game - 3 views

  •  
    This is a very good game for ESL begginers to practice their knowledge. This game also allows them to make direct connections between the names of fruits and numbers. I tried it with 8 students from my EEC Prep2 course and it worked very good. At first they /ss/ failed to win the fruitmaster /computer/ but after playing two or more times, they were able to win. Through this game, Ss uncounciously learn the names of fruits!!!! I would advise everybody to pilot this game with beginner students.

    This is a very good source for making the workisheets of your need. The only thing that you should do is to choose a theme and a new random list. I used this source with my Prep 2A kids for teaching them numbers and animals, and the worksheets were very useful as the kids liked them very much.

Animal Word Search - 0 views

  •  
    I used this during my EEC classes as a homework assignment and it worked pretty well because the students were very motivated to find the word that they had already learned. Besides, 'Animal Word Search' contains pictures of some animals, which makes them to do their homework with curiosity.
