This is a good experience for the students to learn from the picture.
It really makes people to capture in their minds.
It helps to answer easily and solve better solutions.
bloody hell I wish my students behaved like this
And mine! Hahaha
They behave like that, because they are being filmed 😅
Great video and clearly explained. I wish my students were this well behaved!! haha
Can I learn English from you?
Although everyone guessing can get too noisy, I nominate a person in each group each round to yell the guesses each time & it creates a little more noise and more team speaking. It goes over pretty well.
This is really helpful and clearly presented. I will show it to my students as a way of modeling what I want them to do so that we too can play this game. Thank you.
Hi, Thomas! Could you share some good sites with ppt's for ESL classes, please? if you've got some
This is a really fun way of getting students to exercise their long-term memory. If it's a word they know only tentatively, this gives them time to pull it up out of their lexicon.
I do this with a deck of cards on the table (text and, optionally, image on each card). We start a 'time bomb'--a timer that will "beep-beep-beep" until it 'goes off' after about one minute. A member of one team is the first artist, and they take the top card and start drawing that item on the board.
I allow anyone on the artist's team to shout out answers at will. This adds spontaneity and heightens the excitement. Once someone gives the answer, the other team's next artist grabs a card and goes for it.
The clue giving continues to bounce back and forth between the teams until the timer goes off. Which ever team's turn it is when the timer goes off, the OTHER team gets the point.
(For higher level students, this game can also be done with verbal descriptions rather than drawing: "This is a big animal with four legs. We get milk from it.")
So wonderful ..
But how it works with large classes .. my class is 66 students. ..!!
OMG!!! how in the world do you get 66 students??
Ask the students to choose their 2 classmates who are good at drawing, perhaps?
What wonderful students!
thank you so much! rules explained clearly and demonstrations were very apparent! Thumbs up!! I will use this on my new classroom for tomorrow for icebreaking : )
Clear explanation. Thank you
Video is great and very useful for teaching pupils
how nice could be working with few students, sometimes working with 25 ss is difficult
25 is difficult enough. 30 is hell.
25 is difficult 😱 I'm working with 33 sometimes 40 or 45 😵😵😵 lol
we teach 50 to 60 students in a class
I wish I had 25! LOL Im working with 40
I am working with 35 ☺

You are great
What is true guess for the snowman?
Interesting !!!!
ur videos are helpful. thanks
Thanks. But are they really called Brian and Natalie??
Yes, a lot of asian english learners use English names. Just as western chinese learners get chinese names.
People in Hong Kong or Taiwan like to give their kids a western Surname. Actually South and Southeast asians do it too.
Nice!
great ...ilove it ...i'll do it with my students

Terrible class room set up environment for teaching. Trying to do communicative teaching style in a diadactic set up is shocking. Also these kids are really used to didactic. Look at the energy in that room. Its dead
This is so fun!! I'm going to do this for my motivation activity!!
Hello Spike, have you been able to do this activity with your group yet? What do you think of the idea of including the Creator or Pictionary in your group for added motivation? Let me know, I will make the introduction.
Perfect activity thank you!
