Teaching English

  
Right or Wrong? Right or Left?

This is a good way of checking information for younger learners.

Procedure

  • Line up the class in a row facing you.
  • Say a sentence and students have to decide if the sentence is right or wrong. For example, ‘Today is Friday' or ‘There are 14 students in our class today' or ‘Mateu is wearing a green jumper'.
  • If the sentence is right students should take a big step to the right. If it's wrong, they should take a big step to the left.
  • When the students get the idea, one of them can make up the sentences.
  • If you like, the last person to step, of the students who step the wrong way, can be eliminated.
