Lesson plan and game rules.
Level: Medium-high beginner kids
Language focus: Christmas vocabulary practice
Vocabulary focus: Santa, presents etc.
Requirements: coins, markers
How to play.

1. Let each group have two students. Give them a coin and two markers of
different colours.
2. Students do rocks, paper, scissors, to see who flips the coin first. If the
winner chooses say TAILS, the other student is automatically HEADS.
3. The student flips the coin to see the side that shows up. If it’s HEADS, the
student who chose that moves his marker from Start into the first dialogue box
and vice- versa.
4. The student uses the prompts in the box to make a full sentence or answer questions.
5. If the other player can’t answer the question the student can move to the
next dialogue box without flipping a coin- so the other loses a turn to flip.
6. The other student must answer or lose a turn.
7. When a student gets to the reindeer picture, s/he has to do what the
reindeer says. If s/he can’t do what the croc says, the other player can have a
try. If the other player can do it, s/he gains a free turn- s/he then advances
into the next dialogue box.
8. When a student gets to Santa Claus, s/he has to do what the santa says. If s/he
can’t do what Santa says, the other player can have a try. If the other player can
do it, s/he gains a free turn- s/he then advances into the next dialogue box.
9. The first player to get to finish wins the game.

How to play 
 

Tools:    You need dice and chips according to the number of groups you want to play with.  
Only give the students the first two sheets( i.e the Board Game & the question reference worksheets) 
The answer sheet is for the teacher only. 

Rules:  
Students take turns rolling the dice. Everytime they roll the dice they advance according to the number 
that shows up on the dice. When students get to a space, they refer to the question sheet.They read the 
question that corresponds to the space and give a correct answer. If they cannot give a correct answer, 
they loose the space and return to their previous space, while their opponent takes a turn to roll.  

The Signs  

This sign means students must go back to start. (not good at all for the 
player) 

 The GO FORWARD SIGN helps you advance.(GOOD) 

   The GO BACK sign is another trap in the game. (NOT GOOD) 

N:B – Encourage students to come up to you and ask for the answer to a question they are not sure 
about the answer. However, for the teacher to give them the answer, students should ask the full 
question. The teacher whispers the answer in the students ears, they go back and tell their opponent. If 
students do not know the answer and do not ask the teacher, they loose the space and go back to their 
previous space.  

The first team to get to Finish wins.
