They can improve not only their writing skills by finding mistakes from the sentences, but also speaking skills by correcting them. This is suitable for every grades depending on the content, even it is possible to use for the other kinds of subjects.

If the sentence is fine, the student put “ ” in the box under “Good”. If there is a mistake in the sentence, the student put “ ” in the box under ‘No good.' The students then put their Bet on the bet line. If they are confident, they can bet a lot. If they aren't so confident, they can bet a little. ( generally require a minimum bet of 10 points.) Teacher says correct answer. They can check to see if they were correct. If they were correct, they add their bet to their point total.

Game sheet I can’t play golf when I was a child We traveled to India 2 years ago.

In conclusion I used this game for the 11 th and 8 th grade students. They were very active and competitive; therefore they asked me to play again. I noticed that it is useful to use for checking their understanding instead of taking exam sometimes. During the game if the group lose all of their points, they can lend 100 points from the other group. But at the end of the game they have to give back two times more. That’s why they try to understand teacher’s explanation during the lesson to be real contestants next class. Thanks for your attention English Teacher: Tuyasaikhan.G
