Teaching English as a Foreign Language

Whisper Game 
It is adapted from Chinese Whisper, which is, a 
game
 played around the world, in which one person 
whispers a message to another. The message is passed through a line of people until the last player 
announces the message to the entire group. This game is a very good activity to improve the students’ 
ability in listening, speaking, reading and writing. You can apply this game to all levels of students’ 
ability. You just need to adjust the length of the sentences and also the choice of words in the sentences.
Procedure: 
 Ask students to stand up in four or five lines. 
 Tell the game and how to play it, ”Alright students. We’ll play Whisper game. I’ll show a sentence to 
the students in the front. The front students whisper to the students in their back. The second students 
whisper to the third students. The students in the back run to the front and write down the sentence on 
the board. After finishing writing on the board, the students stay in the front, and I’ll whisper to them. 
Again, the students in the back will write the sentence on the board.” 
 Try out to play the game first before really playing it and give scores to students. You can assign score 
to all groups who write the sentence correctly or score only the quickest, correct group.
 After trying out the game and clarifying any confusions apparent, you can start the game. During the 
game, the students might be excited and all move forward to the front of the class. To avoid this, you 
need to set up the rule that they should stay where they are.
Running Dictation 
Since the students are active in understanding the questions and skim the answer in the reading 
materials, the students improve their skimming skills for reading while having fun running from the 
questions to the answers in the reading texts. 
Procedure: 
 Before the game, attach a set of questions on one end of the wall and poster facts or any other reading 
materials about Football clubs in England on the other end.
 Divide the class into 4 or five groups. Ask each group to choose a secretary, 2 runners to look at the 
questions and 2 runners to find the answers. 
 Explain the rules of the game, “Okay, students. Look at the list of questions on that wall and poster 
facts on this wall. Two people should run to that questions, read one question at a time and run to the 
secretary to dictate him/her the question. Another runner find the answer of the question on the poster 
fact over here. Once, you get the answer run back to the secretary and mention the answer. Do it until 
you finish and find the answers of all questions. The first to answer all questions correctly will be the 
winner.”
