To start the game, brainstorm different questions with the class. Let them come up with different questions.

If you have older students, you can opt for any podcast or YouTube video too. Just print out the text of it and do the same practice.

6. Role Play

This activity is ideal for young or adult students. This activity will enhance their communication skills, and creativity and will teach them how to speak English in different scenarios.

In it, you just have to give them a role or scenario and let them play their role.

We will suggest that you give small roles to kids, and do select different questions or dialogues for them to begin with. But, also encourage them to ask creative questions too.

For older students, just give them scenarios. For example, placing an order in a cafe. Let them decide the roles themselves and communicate them on the spot.

Final Thoughts

So, games are essential to teach students of all levels. If there are only books and worksheets in the learning process, classrooms will become dull.

So, do take some time in the ESL classrooms for different games.
