NAME ACROSTIC

NAME ACROSTIC This is a great activity as a warm-up on a first day of class. 1-Ask students to get a piece of paper. 2-Ask students to write their first names on the paper in a vertical position. 3-Have the students write one word beginning with each letter of their first names. Those words have to say something true about themselves, for example, a quality, something they like or dislike, a favorite, or anything else as long as it is true information. 4-When everyone is finished have them share their acrostics in pairs or groups. 5-Ask students to report something they learned about their peers.

I HAVE NEVER...( INTERMEDIATE-ADVANCED )

This game is played in small groups. Ss take turns making TRUE sentences starting with I HAVE NEVER...For example:" I have never been to Africa". Whenever the Ss hear a sentence they don't agree with, they will lose a point, which they will show by bending a finger from one of theirs hands ( they all start the game with 5 points each). A student is eliminated when s(he) loses all of his/her points. The remaining student is the winner. Example: A: I have never eaten sushi. B: Neither have I. I don't lose a point. C: I have. I lose one point.
