ABC Game for students

Give each student three blank cards. On the first card, students write their name, surname and age. On the
second card, the students write four adjectives to describe their physical appearance and personality. On the
third card, students write their favourite TV programme and type of music. You can change the information
the students write on their cards, depending on their level and your chosen language focus. When the
students have finished writing, take all the cards back and shuffle them together. Next, sit the students in a
circle and hand out three cards to each student. If a student receives one of their own cards back, exchange it
for another. Each student should have three cards that other students have written. One student begins by
asking the person on their right to swap one, two or three cards with the student sitting to their right or left.
Then, the next student does the same and so on. This continues until one of the students gets their three cards
back. When this happens, the student says "ABC." All the students then place both hands in the middle of
the circle. The last student to do this loses and gets the letter 'A'. The student who got all their cards back
introduces themselves to the class using the information they wrote on their cards, e.g. 'Hello everyone. My
name is Toby Smith. I'm 12 years old', etc. The student then leaves the game and becomes a spectator. If a
student is the last person to put both hands in the circle a second time, they get a letter 'B'. If this happens a
third time, they get a letter 'C'. The student then has to repeat the names and information of all the students
that have introduced themselves. The game continues until all the students have introduced themselves to the
class.
