Vokabeltests erzeugen oft Frust, aber spielerische Tafel-Warm-ups aktivieren den Wortschatz mit Begeisterung. 5 praxiserprobte Spielmechaniken für Smartboard und Beamer.
A pupil is shown a word on the phone and draws it at the board — without speaking. The class guesses. Afterwards the sheet hangs framed on the wall, and a plaque reveals the word.
A topic, ninety seconds of talking for one pupil, then five facts to tick off — the partners count what was said. The topics come from the topic catalogue: three new ones every night, then whatever the class has not had yet.
Two words for the same thing, and only the side is different: lift or elevator, lorry or truck. The belt brings them one by one, the class sorts them by country.
Nouns come along a conveyor belt: countable to the left, uncountable to the right. The words carry no article — the class has to know, not read it off.
Words come along a conveyor belt and have to be sorted: present to the left, past to the right. Forty-five seconds, and the class watches the count. With two belts, two pupils sort against each other.
Verbs in the infinitive come along the belt — and the class has to know the past form to sort them: regular with -ed to the left, irregular to the right.
A picture of a perfectly useless object — a single bottle cap, one inline skate, an ugly salad bowl — and one pupil has to sell it to their partner. The objects come from the flea market archive; a class gets the ones it has not seen yet.
Everyone stands at the back wall. The teacher calls a word in the pupils' language; whoever calls the English word first may take someone out. Hearing and deciding happen in the room.
The work phase as a slide that may stay up: up to eight phases with their own time, task, material and grouping. The time runs in the phase bar itself.
Targets pop up in random places and vanish again. Between the decoys comes the one you want — hit it and take the point. Every pupil has four darts, then the next one is up.
Sixteen quick choices on cards — Winter or summer? Dogs or cats? — and the class asks each other, in a chain or in pairs. The questions come from the catalogue at the level of the deck: first what this class has never had.
