RECAP EXTRAVAGANZA: HOW TO WRAP UP A UNIT WITH A BIT OF FUN

We have all been there staring at a blank page or a computer screen ready to plan our next class unable to think about how to come up with an idea to wrap up a unit that is about to finish. I usually tend to finish most of them up with a range of activities that consolidate knowledge from previous lessons. So, now that I am ready to complete Module 2 with my C1.1 Blended English Course I have just decided to conclude with a couple of fun class games. Here is how they go!

I will start by getting students to recap all the things we have studied in the Module: education expressions, attitudes to ageing, benefits of having children, life stages, idioms related to age, syllabic consonants, conditional sentences,... You name it! Students will be given a certain amount of time to work with the person sitting next to them to shout out as many items as they remember, trying to get the highest number. Do not forget to keep a record of each team´s answers on the board!

As soon as winners are revealed, I will let them know which 10 topics I have come up with, check coincidences and go on with this random card generator that includes the key elements in the unit.

Students will be asked to write at least five items of what is indicated on the card in just a minute. They might even work in teams and appoint a secretary who writes the words or sentences on the board for them. The winners will be those who can get to five before time is over! Will they be able to do it? Use a countdown timer to increase motivation! Grant them a point for each card they get!


Promises to be fun! Wish me luck!
