I've only been teaching kids for about a year, and I don't have many ideas to engage my students. I searched online and found your channel, which has been incredibly helpful. Your videos are extremely interesting and they help students practice speaking while having fun. Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi, Teacher Val👋. I'm Muhammed. I live in Baku🇦🇿. I introduced this game to our team and we had a lot of fun playing it. Your game is so interesting and fun. Our Teacher Nigel and I thank to you for your work and interesting games. We are waiting another amazing games from you😉.Goodbye from me and the rest of our group😁!
Thanks a lot! What a nice idea! I work at a special school for students with special needs. We learn English using games every lesson. English is very difficult subject for them, but when we play - they try to make the best. I use your ideas, thank for your job and your video!
Thousands of thanks for great ideas. I have tried some of them at my lessons. They work perfectly, but we have another challenge. We need to teach our pupils to take a failure after competitions in appropriate way. Unfortunatly, our children accept it not as a possibility to learn something new but as a tragedy. And I am in a search of ways to teach them to take a failure as a part of our life and a small step towards success.
Yes, you are right. It is not easy for some of the students to accept the fact they can't always win. Try using sport analogies. Why are there rules in sport? Why is there no "I" in team? Why is there a referee in football or basketball? :)
Hi teacher Val An extreamely lovely game indeed I'm actually an Arabic and math teacher for males so I will use this game at my class, really enjoy your lessones Im leaening from you how to teach kids and how to speak English on the other hand 🙏🌹
Hi Val! Thank you so much for your videos. I already played blackboard football as Powerpoint-Version and Bulls Eye in my French-Classes and they loved it! (I love it as well 😂 ) I always look for new games to play. Thank you for these great games! I also watched some of your "full class" videos. It's really nice to see some teaching methods from you. I'm teaching in middle to highschool and these games and methods are still engaging and fun for the students. Greetings from Germany :)
Hello, Jacob! It's great to meet you! Do you teach French in Germany? What city? Most games I present are easy to adapt to pretty much any grade. Most skills and techniques are fully transferrable. Greetings from a Lithuanian in China! Prost! :)
@@jacobbrill1923 Where are you from? France, Germany, UK, or USA? Sorry if my assumptions are wrong. :)) I have been to many cities in Germany but I have never been to Giessen. What musical instrument do you play? I play the guitar.
@@Teacher-Val Well, I am from Germany but I love French (and English as well but I decided to study French at university) 😊 I work here in Giessen but originally, I'm from Saarland (St. Wendel to be precise, a very small city 😃 ) I play the clarinet, the piano, saxophone and I sing :) Very cool that you play the guitar! So you can sing with your students!
@@jacobbrill1923 Sooooo cool! You are a music man!!! I attended a music school when I was 10, and learned to play the classical guitar for 5 years. Piano was my second instrument. I used to compose music and write songs... but since I didn't get much audience I stopped doing it, and I don't really play anymore. All my creativity goes into my lessons which is not a bad thing altogether. :)) Yes, I can sing with my students. There's a lesson on musical instruments which I hope I can post soon. I recorded a song for this lesson with the help of my friend (all instruments are original, and I perform it) but I'm not sure if I can publish it since it is not mine. It's an interpretation of a well known piece as known as the music man...
Thank you very much! I have a student that is a football player and he is low motivated. Your games really help Look forward to seeng new games (already watched them all)
Thank you! I am on holiday now so I will be posting more PowerPoint lesson walkthroughs and full classes but when school starts I will resume posting simple ESL games. :)
@@Teacher-Val i let them say our key sentences first before they roll the dice, at first they don't know what was going on, (since i can't speak chinese yet for instructions) then things get exciting after someone got a point. Ss love it! HAHA! hope i can find a good reference to learn chinese.
I really like most of your suggested activities ^^ and it works well in my classroom Too bad I cant really implement more activities due to my pupils' level of English...They barely can create their own sentences
Hi! Thank you for your amazing video, I am definitely going to use it in my class. However, I was wondering what if the boy need only one space to score but they roll the dice and get to move two or three spaces? It would be wonderful if you could answer my question, I couldn't appreciate more.
Thanks for your ideas. I tried to buy ppts on your page with a discount but I couldnt😔. I thought Cyber... Was the code. Now looking again, you have put the prices down
The promo code is CYBER21 but I am not sure if you need it because all the items are at discounted prices. Thank you!! I appreciate your interest and support!
Keep trying until you find something that works. Some students have a difficult situation in their families and studying is the last thing they want to do. You, as a teacher, need to understand the reasons behind their low motivation and then act accordingly.
@@Teacher-Val I need to teach my kids at home. Because of covid issues they are not going to school ..please I need your help fir grade 1 and grade 3. How can I get your full lectures sometime they won't listen me very well...one thing more will you please guide me the curriculum for the next grades.

So simple, yet so awesome! Great game and great video Teacher Val!
Thank you!!! Simple games are often the best ones because “If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." (Albert Einstein)
Woow, please bring such a wonderful simple games, because we just have a blackboard in our class.
Will do! When I started teaching, I also had nothing but a blackboard and a piece of chalk so I will keep these videos coming!

You are very welcome! May Allah reward you too for your kind wishes.
Wow, i liked it. Thank you a lot for your ideas.
You are most welcome!
To make the game a bit easier, you can use a pyramid die from Dungeons and dragons dice set
Yeah, that's a good idea!
haha! i like it! I'm so excited to play this with my kids
Let me know how it worked! :)
@@Teacher-Val i let them say our key sentences first before they roll the dice, at first they don't know what was going on, (since i can't speak chinese yet for instructions) then things get exciting after someone got a point. Ss love it! HAHA! hope i can find a good reference to learn chinese.
@@Teacher-Val I will try this with my kids. They didn't like sports ..just playing video games
Amazing video 💯
Thanks!
Perfect
Super idea! Check it with my primary students)
I really like most of your suggested activities ^^ and it works well in my classroom
Too bad I cant really implement more activities due to my pupils' level of English...They barely can create their own sentences
Thank you! I will try to show more activities for absolute beginners.
great Val. I like your video so much
I am very happy to hear it! Thanks!
Thank u very much for yr videos.. keep going please ☺️💪🏻😻
Thank you! Will do! :)

If they have only one space to go but roll 2-6, they still win! :))
Thanks for your ideas.

Now looking again, you have put the prices down
The promo code is CYBER21 but I am not sure if you need it because all the items are at discounted prices.

@@Teacher-Val you are right. I saw that later. So why would a need the code?
@@LettyMaria1 No idea! The website provides the code so there must be a reason! :))
I love it - subscribed :-)
Thank you, Martin!

How to encourage low motivated students to get involved in this games?
Keep trying until you find something that works. Some students have a difficult situation in their families and studying is the last thing they want to do. You, as a teacher, need to understand the reasons behind their low motivation and then act accordingly.
@@Teacher-Val I need to teach my kids at home. Because of covid issues they are not going to school ..please I need your help fir grade 1 and grade 3.
