A revision game.

Main learning outcome: By the end of this lesson, Ss will have revised the contents given in units 4 and 5.

STAGE	PROCEDURES (WHAT T DOES)	TASKS (WHAT STS DO)
1.LEAD-IN/PREPARATION	The T asks Ss to sit in a semi-circle so as to play a board game to revise the contents given before the test. She sticks the board on the bb and asks Ss to get divided in 2 groups (one of them will represent a bus and the other, a bicycle).	The Ss sit in a semi circle and get divided in 2 teams.
2.SETTING UP	The T explains the game to Ss: People, the game is simple and fun: one of the teams will be the car team and the other, the bicycle team. The game will represent a journey from the countryside to the city. Each of the teams will choose a representer who will come to the front to throw the dice and move the counters on the board. You begin from the ‘start’ square. You throw the dice and advance as many places as the dice indicates. If you get to a green square, you get a vocabulary card. If you stand on a yellow square, you get a grammar card, so the whole team will have to answer questions. For each right answer, you will move 1 square and, for each wrong answer, you will stay where you are. If the other team answers when it is not their turn, they will miss one turn. The team who first gets to the city, wins! Any questions?	The Ss listen attentively to the game’s instructions If necessary, they ask questions.
3.RUNNING THE ACTIVITY	The game starts. The T asks: Which group wants to start? The bicycle or the car? The first team chooses a representer, who will throw the dice and move the counter. If the dice shows the 5, for example, he/she moves the bicycle or the car 5 squares forward, and get a card according to the colour their counter is standing on. One answer may be: 'Which is the opposite of 'noisy'? The whole team think together and answer 'quiet'. So, they move one square and the other team continues. If any language problem arises, or there is trouble with the grammar questions, the T writes it down on a paper in order to give a feedback session after the game.	The Ss start to play the game
4.CLOSING THE ACTIVITY	The team which first arrives on the 'welcome to the city' chart, wins. She handles a candy to all the Ss for participating in the game.
5. POST-ACTIVITY	The T runs out a feedback session: If there has been any content or language problems, she writes the target item or the inaccurate utterances on the bb and asks the class if they can provide the right answer or structure. Once the mistake has been identified, she highlights the wrong form and asks Ss how they would rephrase that sentence. E.g.: ‘I am practising for be a singer’ ------- Is it OK? How would you correct it?	Ss notice the mistakes and try to correct them.
