1、儿童英语学习游戏Activities and games A to ZA Action Race: This is a fun game using actions. Use actions like jump, hop, clap, run etc. Have the Ss split into two teams and sit in lines with a chair by each team and one chair at the other end of the room. One S from each team stands next to their chair and T

2、 calls an action, e.g. Jump. Ss must jump to the chair on the other side of the room and back, sitting down in their chair Ss say I can jump. First one to do it gets their team a point. (Submitted by Gareth Thomas).Airplane competition: First, have your Ss make some paper airplanes. Stand the Ss in

3、a line and let them test fly their planes. For the competition, assign different classroom objects points (e.g. table 5 points, door 10 points, trashcan 20 points). Ask a S a question and if s/he answers correctly then s/he can throw and try to hit one of the target objects to win points. This works

4、 well as a team game.Art Gallery: This is a great activity for reviewing vocab. Draw enough squares on the board for each S to be able to draw in. Have the Ss write their names above their squares. T calls out a word and the Ss draw it (could be simple nouns e.g. dog, bookcase, train, verb structure

5、s e.g. draw a man running, eating cake, sleeping) or adjectives (draw a big elephant, an angry lion, an expensive diamond ring). For each S give a score for his/her picture, and then move on to the next picture. The S with the highest score at the end is the winner.B Backs to the Board Game: This on

6、e is good for higher level kids. Make two teams and stand one S from each team in front of the board, facing away from it. Write a word or draw a picture on the board (e.g. hamburger) and the Ss have to explain that word to their team member (e.g. you can buy it in McDonalds, its got cheese and ketc

7、hup in it). The first S out of the two standing in front of the board to guess the word wins a point for his/her team.Banana Race: Children just love this! It is basically a QUIZ game in which you ask children questions (Target Vocabulary) like: Whats this? What fruit is red and round? How many chai

8、rs are there in the classroom? or the T simply draws items on the board, makes animal noises so that they guess. You can work with Ss or split the class into small groups/teams if you have a large class. The T draws on the board a race track and each team or S will be a BANANA waiting at the Startin

9、g Line. They will approach the Goal line as they answer each question. Each right answer equals a step towards the Goal Line. The BANANA who arrives there first, WINS! (Submitted by Salvador Domingo).Basketball: Ss take a shot at the trashcan/box/etc. First ask a question to S1. If s/he answers corr

10、ectly then s/he can have a shot at the basket. If the S gets the ball in the basket then s/he wins 2 points. If the S hits the basket without going inside then s/he wins 1 point. The person who gets the most points is the winner. This can also be played in teams.Bet you cant: This game can be played

11、 in millions and millions of different ways, and essentially its just this: go to the toy store and buy toy money. Give each student the same amount of money at the start. Have the students bet each other that they cant do something - like this: make each S stand up and walk around. Have them say, I

12、 bet you cant (e.g. count to 20, run around the room 5 times, sing the ABC song. etc.). Get the Ss to bet using the toy money. Youd be surprised how much even adult students enjoy this game. (Submitted by nadav)Bingo: Can be played with numbers, letters, pictures or even words. The winner is the fir

13、st to either get a line or or full house.Blind Toss: Have Ss sit down in a circle. Place a mat on the floor with numbers and a flashcard (target vocabulary) on each number. Taking turns, each S gets blindfolded and tosses a beanbag so as to hit a number. S/he must call out that word the same number

14、of times as the number indicates. For example: 4-dog, then Dog, Dog, Dog, Dog! and the S gets the equal points (4). At the end, the S with the most points wins! Good for memorizing vocabulary since they are repeating words. (Submitted by Salvador Domingo).Blindfold Course: Make an obstacle course in

15、 your classroom (use desks, chairs, etc.), put a blindfold on a S and help guide him/her through the course by giving instructions (e.g. walk forward 2 steps, turn left, take on small step, etc.). This is a good pair game.Blindfold Guess: Blindfold a S and give him/her an object to feel. The S must

16、guess what the object is. This works well with plastic animals as the are a little challenging to guess (I always throw in a dinosaur to spice things up!).Blindfold Questions: Put Ss in a circle, with one student, blindfolded standing in the middle. Turn the S around a few times. Tell the S to point

17、 at the person in front of him/her and ask a question (e.g. How old are you?, Whats your favorite food?, etc.). After the reply the blindfolded S must guess the name of the S s/he is talking to.Board Scramble: T puts the whole alphabet on the blackboard in a scramble of letters here and there, but l

18、ow enough that the Ss can reach it. Have two teams and call out a letter. The person that is able to find and circle it first wins a point for their team. To make things harder have capitol and small letters. Even more challenging- have four teams all looking for the same letter. The kids just love

19、it. You can do it with numbers and also words. (Submitted by Susie).Buzz: A counting game. Have the Ss sit in a circle. The Ss pass the ball around while counting (1, 2, 3, etc.). When the number reaches 7 the S must say buzz. Any number with a 7 in it must be buzz (7, 17, 27, 37, etc.) and any mult

20、iple of 7 must be buzz (14, 21, 28, 35, etc.).C Can You Actions: Use this game for teaching Can you.? Yes, I can No, I cant. These actions are fun: wiggle, dance, run quickly, hop, skip, do a star jump, do a handstand, touch your toes, cross your eyes, snap your fingers, whistle, sing. E.g. Ask a S

21、Can you cross your eyes?. If the S replies Yes, I can then say Ok, go! and the S does the action. If the S says No, I cant say Too bad. Ok, can you (wiggle)?.Category Spin: Sit Ss in a circle. Spin a bottle or an arrow - the S that the arrow points to is first. The S needs to say a word from a pre-d

22、ecided category. The next S will say last word plus his own and so on until it gets to the one who fails. For example: S1:zebra, S2: zebra cat, S3: zebra cat dog. (submitted by Nadav Avidan)Category Tag: Choose a category (e.g. food, weather, transportation, etc.). Ss run around the room and the T c

23、hases them. When the T tags a S s/he must name a word from the category (e.g. food: cheese, fish, bread, etc.). Give a time limit to answer (e.g. 5 seconds). If the S cannot answer or says a word that has already been used s/he sits out until the next round.Category Writing Game: Divide the classroo

24、m into two or three groups. Each group chooses their captain. The teacher writes on the board a word like FRUIT or COLORS or ANIMALS, etc. Each group has to tell their captain to write down as many words as they can which belong to that category. They have 1 or 2 mins. Each group takes 1 point for e

25、ach word. Correct Spelling is very important in this exercise! (submitted by Eftychia Charalambous).Charades: Have a S come to the front of the class and whisper a word or show a FC to that S. The S the acts out that word and the first S to guess can be the next player. This works very well with act

26、ion verbs. Variation: divide the class up into teams - the first S to guess wins a point for his/her team.Clothes Fun: Students form teams of 3. Each team has a bag with some clothes in it. The first team member puts on the clothes. He/She must say, This is my shirt, These are my trousers, This is m

27、y hat etc., with each item of clothing. Then when all the clothes are on, they say, Im dressed and start removing the clothes, passing them to the next team member, who repeats the process. If you have some fancy high-heeled shoes and silly hats this is a really fun game! Very young beginner student

28、s will normally only say, shirt, hat etc. but its still a worthwhile game for the vocabulary. My students loved it! Colors in the Air: This is good for very young ones. Give each S 2 pieces of different colored paper (origami paper is ideal for this). T calls a color (e.g. Blue) and the Ss with that

29、 color hold it up. (submitted by Jo Ruoss).Color Circles: A good activity for young kids. Get some pieces of A3 paper and draw a large circle on each one. Pin the circles on different walls in the classroom. Model the activity: Say Blue, take a blue crayon, walk over to one circle and color a small

30、part of the circle. Do this for each color you plan to teach. Then, say a color (Blue) to a S and s/he should pick up the blue crayon and go over to the circle you colored in blue. Let him/her color it a little and then call himher back. Continue with other Ss.Color Game: This is a good one for teac

31、hing the names of colors to young children. Arrange various colors of construction paper in a circle. Play some music and have the children march around the circle. Stop the music and all the children must sit down next to a color. Pick a color and sing (to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star):

32、Whos beside the color (insert name of color)? Please stand up, if its you. At that point, the child next to the color mentioned stands up. Continue until all of the children get a turn. (submitted by Josie Weisner).Cross the River: Place flashcards on floor in winding manner. Each card represents a stepping stone in the river, as students must say word/phrase/question/etc in order to step on it and cross the river! (submitte
