Guess, discuss, compare, find out :)

Think of other things in the world. Find out how long, heavy and hot they are!

Time, Length, Weight and Temperature

For Thai Students…



There are 40 simple and/or commonly used questions and 40 answers. (A total of 80 cards.)

To help the students read the cards, the phonetic English in Thai script is underneath the questions and answers.

A translation of the English question or answer is at the bottom.

There is a reverse image for the cards on page 7.



The phonetic Thai translation may not be perfect on every card but I did the best I could!



This is a great learning activity for young learners. After they have played the game a few times they will enjoy practicing their English by asking you questions and giving you answers.



In the next few weeks I will have an almost identical game ready with the questions and answers being of a higher level.

 

One of the reasons I decided to go to the trouble of making this game was that I got tired of students acting out the motion of drinking a bottle of water instead of asking me, in English, permission to leave the classroom to do it.



Also – The images are Jpegs squeezed into a Word document so they are not the greatest of quality. Feel free to email me if you like this exercise and would like the original bitmap images so you can print your own, higher quality, cards…

Thai Q & A domino game

Do you know how to use a, some, any, much and many? Look at these examples to see how to use countable and uncountable nouns in a sentence.

I'm making a cup of tea.

There's some money on the table.

Nouns can be countable or uncountable. Countable nouns can be counted, e.g. an apple, two apples, three apples, etc. Uncountable nouns cannot be counted, e.g. air, rice, water, etc. When you learn a new noun, you should check if it is countable or uncountable and note how it is used in a sentence.

Countable and uncountable nouns

This worksheet is made for elementary students to practice reading skills and the vocabulary on the topic Nature. It also includes a writing task to boost children's creativity.

A trip to Niagara Falls
