You will need 6 die and 26 pieces of coloured paper. On one side of the coloured paper print one letter of the alphabet per pice, A-Z. On the opposite side, randomly, print the numbers 1-5 and a few "typhoon" images. Here's how I had them divided up:
1 x 3
2 x 4
3 x 6
4 x 4
5 x 3
Typhoon x 6
I would suggest laminating these papers so you can always reuse them without any damage. Then if you can get some, use magnetic tape for sticking the cards onto your blackboard.
Before class begins, put all the cards onto the board and write out a scoreboard (6 teams) and the die instructions:
1 - miss a turn and change direction
2 - answer a question (this is review type stuff from what you have been studying; have students take turns to answer these questions, so each one gets a chance to speak)
3 - answer a question (same as above, prepare a lot of questions in advance; they must answer in a full sentence)
4 - 10 words (give them a topic, such as colours/something to drink, etc, and they have to tell you 10 vocab words that fit)
5 - make a sentence (you give them one word, from a lesson or randomly, and they must make a sentence with at least 7 words)
6 - Rock Scissors Paper (the team must choose another team to play against; the winner keeps the higher amount of points/the two teams change points)
After the team has successfully answered 2, 3, 4 or 5, they can choose a letter of the alphabet which will be their points or a typhoon card. A typhoon card reduces their points to zero!
***You can rearrange the activities by die number but I found that some thngs would come up too often if I changed it too much, such as miss a turn, which doesn't come up too much on a one.
***It's really important to prepare a bunch of questions/words/categories before you play the game because it is difficult to think of things on the spot during the game.
I would give them a set amount of time to answer, like one minute and start a countdown if they are taking too long. I'm pretty picky with the words/sentences that they come up with. Ex if the 10 words topic is zoo animals, I won't accept pig or horse, since they are farm animals... On number 2 and 3, it doesn't matter how long the sentence is, only number 5 has a minimum number of words for an answer, but you can set your own rules for those activities anyway. For number 6, rsp, I will not accept it when the students say the Korean words, it must be "rock, scissors, paper", in English to count.
