a warm up or wrap up activity that gets learners to come up with questions related to business / company work topics.

21 conversation cards to practise vocab connected with jobs. Print,cut out the cards,laminate if you wish to do so, put them on the table face downwards. Students divided into groups take turns and read the description of a given job line by line starting from the most general one to the most specific. The rest of the students are to guess which job is being described. If they guess after the first line (the most general line) they are given seven points, after the second , six etc. Remember to make sure students know the vocab used to describe all the jobs. As a follow-up activity you may ask students to prepare their own cards describing other professions. In this way your collection of cards may becom much bigger. Enjoy!

Our Snake Race game is our own original game similar to Snakes and Ladders. All you need are dice and something to act as game pieces. Roll a die, move along the snake while counting aloud, and say whatever you land on. If you’land on a “Roll again” spot, you can go again. But if you’re not so lucky, you might have to go back a few spaces. More advanced students can ask and answer questions related to Halloween such as, “Do you like spiders?”.

Halloween 1 & 2 Snake Race Game

It´s a board game to practise vocabulary connected with winter sports. Cut out the first 2 pages into 8 separate cards. There are sports and 4 items you need for that sport, each student has one of these. Then cut the other 2 pages with pictures. Put them in the middle of the tabel. Students take turns in turning the cards over. If in the picture there is one of the things they need for their sport (according to the card), they say "I need the...(and the object on the card)." They put it on the appropriate place with the word. If they do not need it, they say "I don´t need the... ." to practise the vocabulary. Of course you can use them for any other card games, eg if you print only the picture cards 2x, the students can play pairs etc. ;-)
