divide students into two teams
place the plates at one end of the classroom and the receptacles with adjectives at the opposite end of the classroom
children pick an adjective and run and place it on the correct plate and run back
they high-five the next team member in line and only then can the next player pick an adjective and run to the plates
the competition ends when all the adjectives have been placed
the team which scores the most points (= placed the most adjectives right) wins

If they make a mistake or don't know, they lose their turn and have to return back to the square they previously stood on.

6. Tic Tac Toe

To be played in pairs. In order to write their Xs and Os, pupils have to write the

comparative and superlative on the line. If they don't know, they have to choose a different square. If they make a mistake, they lose their turn.

ESL Hobbies Vocabulary Book for Newcomers

By Sign with me TOD

In this product, students will learn the English vocabulary word for the different hobbies. Students will initially write each vocabulary word in their native language and after learning the English word, students will complete the hobby vocabulary review where they will be required to fill in the English and their native language hobby vocabulary word. I tend to use that section as a quiz. I will read the word aloud and the students will then write the English word and the word in their native language. Pictures are included for each vocabulary word to help students make connections to what each item is. Students can do this independently or with help. Students will be required to answer a few comprehension questions that relate with what their favorite hobby is, what their least favorite hobby is, etc.
