From Three Wise Monkeys

Aims: comparatives (-er, more)

Materials: worksheets / sentence cards / prizes

THOUGHTS: Worked fantastically. Can get really loud, so try doing it with rows of teams seated.

This is a GREAT activity for an end of the year review in junior high. The students basically form groups and work together to find sentences about different people, dictate them, write them down, and repeat them to the teacher. Afterwards, the corrected and in-order sentences are used to solve a puzzle worksheet that is handed out only when they finish the sentences. I made a big drawing of 5 different people and the students had to figure out who was who and how old each person was by matching the sentences which described the people. If I can scan the drawing, I’ll upload it.

A great, great idea. Thanks Three Wise Monkeys! Go to this activity ยป
