Well,
I think everyone has played this game, it's better known as "the movie game".
In my school, when it rains too much, we stay in the classrooms to prevent the students from getting sick. One of the things I always have in class are the called "
Post it". One rainy day I stuck my name on the head of one of my pupils. How wonderful! Everyone started reading my name and saying it all the time.
When I understood what was going on I put random words in the heads of several students. To my amazement, the motivation was growing more and more. Recess was over and everyone went back to their classes.
Weeks later, having prepared the activity well, I wrote numbers from 0 to 100, such as: thirteen, nine, twenty, fifty-five and many more. This worked! I split the class into several groups and asked them to read what number their classmates had stuck on their heads.
Since then, every free second we have in class, we use it to play this game. I have done it with several subjects and it is very useful. You can use numbers, animals, verbs, nouns and so on and so forth.
