Methods of teaching comparison of degrees adjective in english

Comparative and superlative stacking game
Especially with students who go crazy with ball games or waste lots of time with their awful ball handling skills, I sometimes play basically the same game, but with students taking turns saying plain adjective, comparative and then superlative as they add blocks to a tower. As with the ball games above, students lose points if they make a mistake, take too long, or challenge the other students with an adjective which they also don’t know the comparative and superlative for. And in this case they also lose that round if the tower falls down.
The drawing and miming games below are also basically drilling games, but with a little more context.
Comparative and superlative miming games
Students mime “small, smaller, the smallest”, “fat, fatter than, the fattest”, etc. You can simply get the whole class to do the actions while drilling the forms, in order to make drilling more fun and to add some context to make the meaning clear. You can also make some games out of miming comparative and superlative forms. The first game idea is for the teacher or a student to mime “tall, taller, the tallest”, “painful, more painful, the most painful”, etc for the people watching to guess. You can also do the opposite, getting students to race to mime the right thing (and perhaps repeat what you said) when you shout out “short, shorter than, the shortest”. This can also be made more like the drilling games above by splitting the forms up. For example, if someone says (and perhaps mimes) “sad”, the other students race to mime and shout out “sadder, the saddest”[10.223].
Comparative and superlative drawing games
These games are almost the same as the miming games above, but with a pen or pencil replacing bodily movement. In the guessing version, someone draws pictures representing “thin, thinner, the thinnest”, “scary, scarier, the scariest” etc on the board and other people race to shout the right three forms out. In the racing version, everyone rushes to draw and say or write “hairy, hairier, the hairiest” after a drawn, written and/ or spoken prompt from the teacher or a classmate.
The third possibility is Comparative and Superlative Drawing Challenge, in which someone is challenged to draw something matching a superlative like “The angriest teacher” or “The most luxurious hotel”. After they make their attempt, someone else tries to draw an even angrier teacher etc, after which the class decide which one of the two is more extreme, using comparative forms to make their judgement. Note that this game can take quite a lot of silent drawing time, so it’s best to cut down on that as much as you can, e.g. setting the initial drawing task for homework, having strict time limits and/ or getting the class working on several challenges at the same time.
