These are the activities i will be using during unit 11.
1) - Memory Game (numbers 1-10). I made 4 sets of these flash cards and so played the game with the class split into 4 teams. There are two copies of each number in each set (so on set contains the numbers 1-10 twice = 20 cards).
All cards are placed face down on the table ... children select a card and say the key sentence 'i am ... years old (using the number for the age). They then choose another card and say the sentence. If the cards match, they keep the card and play again. If not ... the next student plays his / her turn.
The kids really enjoyed this ... a warning though ... they get loud!
Also, it is worth laminating these / sticking them on colored paper squares (or the students can see through the card making the game pointless).
2) How old is he? - Guessing game.
Students are split into two teams ... they have to guess the age of the character on the screen .... teacher will tell them higher / lower as clues ... the team who guesses correctly wins the points.
3) Bingo -
http://www.bingoport.co.uk/bingo-caller/I used a website to make bingo cards (students work in pairs) and the above site as a bingo caller. students say the key phrase for each number shown.
4) Grade 5 - Unit 11 - How Old Are You - How many game
When you press the hint button ... images flash up .. students must work out how many there are ... then use that number to make the key sentences ... hit the show button to display the picture static on the slide.
hope these ideas help ... feel free to modify as you see fit ... any feedback greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
