MATERIALS NEEDED/
APP USED TO CREATE THE GAME: à Plastic fruits that
are life-size or not too small. à A cloth bag, not

|
DESCRIPTION OF THE
GAME AND RULES OF THE GAME: à We put several
plastic fruits in a large cloth bag, in which the fruits cannot be guessed by
their shape with the naked eye. As they are so young, we will show the fruits
that we put in the bag so that they have some reference to say the fruit. à In turns, a student
will put his hand in the bag and will have to take only one fruit, they have
to guess which fruit it is and then when they take it out of the bag, they
will be able to check if they have succeeded. The game will get more
complicated the more fruits we put in and if we add more food. |

PICTURE OF THE GAME: |
How do you play?
"I go shopping"
It's about carrying out a small market in class.
The students work in pairs, one of the couple writes 5 things on the shopping list and gives it to his partner who must go to "do the shopping in the supermarket of class"
When you return with the purchase made between the two of you, you must say the words and see that everything has been bought.
Then we exchange roles.
After a few days of playing, we can remove several wordcards and they have to remember the names and write them down.
The role of the teacher in this case, is to supervise the shopping lists, that it is well written.
