Description
Making sentences is a simple yet effective game that develops the student’s language skills. Jumble the sentences and start writing down the unique words randomly on the sheet of paper. Ensure that the words are spelled correctly and are written clearly so that all the participants understand. Make copies so that each participant gets one. Include articles, prepositions, conjunctions, and other words that the students would need to form sentences. Make an exhaustive list of sentences that can be created with the words on the paper.
Procedure on how to put in practice
Give your participants a pen, two sheets of blank paper and the sheet with the words. Players must form as many sentences as they can in 30 minutes. In the end, the player with the highest number of meaningful and grammatically correct sentences scores the highest. You can also form teams of two if you have more people.
