Picture quiz: Real or fake
« on: November 19, 2012, 08:36:47 PM »
I made this game for a lesson on lying and made-up stories. I also really wanted to use the new "X or O" boards we've got. Pretty simple: Is it photoshop or not?

I'll be using this for my after school girls today. I added in a few photo shopped celebrities as well. I had done a beauty lesson previously, so I'm hoping they catch on. They also get bored from PPTs easily, even if it's a game, so we'll see how this goes!

I'm still thinking on how to incorporate some action into this. They love to move and act. Maybe instead of four squares we'll do two squares. I don't have X and O boards as far as  I know.

Absolutely loved this lesson.  It was so much fun. 

For my class I added an extra incentive.  My class is divided into groups and so I gave each team 100points and told them they had to bet on each picture.  They were given two flashcards, one saying 'FAKE' and the other 'REAL'.  If they got it correct got the amount they bet on it, if not they lost it.

I've used it on low-level, high-level, 1st, 2nd and 3rd and it has been fantastic...
I have added the FAKE REAL documents to this thread...

Great fun!

Great lesson. Where did you find the photos? I'd like to hear the backstory behind some of them in case students inquire.

great idea thank you!  Ill be using this with my after school club. I will use white boards and try the 100 point wager system.
If we have extra time I will play the 2 truths and 1 lie game just to have them practice some speaking.

  Thanks again for the ppt. and for the suggestions.

I changed the OP's a little and got some background info on most of the pics.

I would like to hear this as well.

I didn't plan a lesson around this ppt but instead used it as a time killer since my lesson ran short this week. The students loved just shouting what they thought it was -- and we'd talk about the pictures afterwards. I'd have loved to be able to give more of a story behind the real pictures though.

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that your Real/Fake game went over as a smash hit with my middle school boys. It went over so well that I brought back the game for my return classes after summer camp, pre-book material. I needed new material though, since they knew all the old pictures, so I took a handful of the suggestions on this thread and made a "Version 2" with all new pictures.

Feel free to use this one as well (there are 2 slides with me and my girlfriend involved using Trick Eye Museum pictures from Seoul. You can keep or trash those as you wish. I wanted to personalize the game a bit for the students.)

Keep in mind that FAKE refers to Photoshopped, as there are a handful of illusions using perspective/trick angles, etc that are listed as REAL for the answer. This really gets kids thinking and throws a monkey wrench into things.

All the real pictures have little stories, too. They pop up a second or two after the "REAL" bit appears and the music ends.

Enjoy!

Sorry to post on such an old thread. I just wanted to let future downloaders of this lovely game know that the famous base jumper's name is Felix Baumgartner, not Felix Bumgardner, though the latter is infinitely more amusing.

My students will have great fun with this game. Cheers ^^
