1. Spelling bee

1. The pronouncer announces the word to be spelled. He speaks slowly and clearly, without
distorting the normal pronunciation of the word. He uses the word in a sentence and says the
word again.

2. The speller listens carefully to the pronouncer and asks for the word to be repeated if
necessary.

3. When the speller is sure she understands the word, she pronounces it, spells it and then
says the word again. She must say it loudly enough for the judge to hear it.

4. The judge(s) determines whether or not the word was spelled correctly

5. If the correct spelling was given, the speller remains in the game.

6. If the spelling was incorrect, that speller is eliminated from the game. The judge gives the
correct spelling of that word. Then the pronouncer reads a new word to the next student.

7. When there are only two spellers left, if one player misspells a word, the other player must
spell that word correctly, plus one more word to be declared the winner of the spelling bee.

Those are really all the spelling bee rules you need for a simple classroom game. Feel free to
adapt to your own situation. We recognize that often the pronouncer and judge will be the
same person -- the classroom teacher!

2. Scrabble

Scrabble Rules - Scrabble Official Rules

When playing Scrabble, anywhere from two to four players will enjoy the game. The object
when playing is to score more points than other players. As words are placed on the game
board, points are collected and each letter that is used in the game will have a different point
value. The main strategy is to play words that have the highest possible score based on the
combination of letters.

The Scrabble Board

A standard Scrabble board will consist of cells that are located in a large square grid. The
board offers 15 cells high and 15 cells wide. The tiles used on the game will fit in each cell
on the board.

Scrabble Tiles
There are 100 tiles that are used in the game and 98 of them will contain letters and point
values. There are 2 blank tiles that can be used as wild tiles to take the place of any letter.
When a blank is played, it will remain in the game as the letter it substituted for.

Different letters in the game will have various point values and this will depend on how rare
the letter is and how difficult it may be to lay that letter. Blank tiles will have no point values.

Tile Values
Below are the point values for each letter that is used in a Scrabble game.

0 Points - Blank tile.

1 Point - A, E, I, L, N, O, R, S, T and U.

2 Points - D and G.

3 Points - B, C, M and P.

4 Points - F, H, V, W and Y.

5 Points - K.

8 Points - J and X.

10 Points - Q and Z.

Extra Point Values

When looking at the board, players will see that some squares offer multipliers. Should a tile
be placed on these squares, the value of the tile will be multiplied by 2x or 3x. Some squares
will also multiply the total value of the word and not just the single point value of one tile.

Double Letter Scores - The light blue cells in the board are isolated and when these are used,
they will double the value of the tile placed on that square.

Triple Letter Score - The dark blue cell in the board will be worth triple the amount, so any
tile placed here will earn more points.

Double Word Score - When a cell is light red in colour, it is a double word cell and these
run diagonally on the board, towards the four corners. When a word is placed on these
squares, the entire value of the word will be doubled.

Triple Word Score - The dark red square is where the high points can be earned as this will
triple the word score. Placing any word on these squares will boos points drastically. These
are found on all four sides of the board and are equidistant from the corners.
One Single Use - When using the extra point squares on the board, they can only be used one
time. If a player places a word here, it cannot be used as a multiplier by placing another word
on the same square.

Starting the Game

Without looking at any of the tiles in the bag, players will take one tile. The player that has
the letter that is closest to “A” will begin the game. A blank tile will win the start of the
game. The tiles are them replaced to the bag and used in the remainder of the game.

Every player will start their turn by drawing seven tiles from the Scrabble bag. There are
three options during any turn. The player can place a word, they can exchange tiles for new
tiles or they can choose to pass. In most cases, players will try to place a word as the other
two options will result in no score.

When a player chooses to exchange tiles, they can choose to exchange one or all of the tiles
they currently hold. After tiles are exchanged, the turn is over and players will have to wait
until their next turn to place a word on the board.

Players can choose to pass at any time. They will forfeit that turn and hope to be able to play
the next time. If any player passes two times in a row, the game will end and the one with the
highest score will win.

The First Word Score

When the game begins, the first player will place their word on the star spin in the centre of
the board. The star is a double square and will offer a double word score. All players
following will build their words off of this word, extending the game to other squares on the
board.

Play continues in a clockwise direction around the Scrabble board.

Replacing Scrabble Tiles

Once tiles are played on the board, players will draw new tiles to replace those. Players will
always have seven tiles during the game. Drawing tiles is always done without looking into
the bag so that the letters are always unknown.

The Fifty Point Bonus

Exciting rewards can come when players use all seven tiles to create a word on the board.
When this happens, players will receive a 50 point bonus, in addition to the value of the
word. If the game is near the end and players are not holding seven tiles, they do not get the
bonus for using all of their tiles. This is only collected for seven letter words placed.

The End of a Scrabble Game

Once all tiles are gone from the bag and a single player has placed all of their tiles, the game
will end and the player with the highest score wins.

Tallying Scrabble Scores

When the game ends, each player will count all points that are remaining on their tiles that
have not been played. This amount will be deducted from the final score.

An added bonus is awarded to the player that ended the game and has no remaining tiles. The
tile values of all remaining players will be added to the score of the player who is out of tiles
to produce the final score for the game.

The Scrabble player with the highest score after all final scores are tallied wins.

Accepted Scrabble Words

Any word that is found in a standard English dictionary can be used in the game of Scrabble.
There are also Official Scrabble Dictionaries that can be purchased for more word options.

There are some words that are not allowed to be played and these include suffixes, prefixes
and abbreviations. Any word that requires the use of a hyphen or apostrophe cannot be played
in the game. Any word that required the use of a capital letter is not allowed.

When playing an English version of the game, foreign words are not allowed to be placed on
the board. However, if the foreign word does appear in a standard English dictionary, it is
allowed. The reason for this is due to the fact that the word is spoken enough and is
considered part of the English language.

4. Pictionary

Pictionary
What it is: Originally a board game, but it’s become a common classic, and you don’t need
to buy the game to play your own version. It’s a drawing word-guessing game for groups of
any age.

Best for: Group of at least 4 players.

What you need: You’ll need something to draw on, like a big pad of paper and marker, a
chalk board and chalk, or a wipe-off board and dry erase marker. Or even just a stack of
blank paper. You’ll also need slips of paper with words written on them and a hat or bowl to
put them in. (Or, you can use my online word generator!) Optional: a
stopwatch/hourglass/clock, and a piece of paper to keep score.

How to play: The game is pretty simple: players take turns silently drawing different things
while their team tries to guess what the drawing is. Teams compete against each other to have
the most guessed words and win the game.

The way you set up the game can vary; pictionary allows for a lot of flexibility. For this post,
let’s pretend you’re going to play with a big group divided into two teams.

Before the game starts, you’ll want to come up with some things to draw and write them on
slips of paper (see the end of this post for some pre-made lists). The objects can be as hard or
as easy as you want. If you’re playing with little kids, easily illustrated nouns like sun or bear
would probably be good; if you’re playing with teens or adults, throw in some abstract nouns
like honor, some adjectives or verbs like upset or dance, or maybe some idioms like have a
cow.

Once you have your slips of paper ready, fold them up and put them in a bowl or hat. Then
divide your players into two teams.

If you have one drawing surface, have teams take turns sending up a player to pick a word
from the hat and draw it in a pre-designated amount of time. If the team guesses the word
before the time runs out, they get a point. (Or, if you want to designate hard and easy words
at the beginning, you could assign different point values to different words.) Then the other
team takes a turn.

If you have two drawing surfaces, you could have each team send up a player and have them
draw the same word at the same time (hiding their drawings from the other team). First team
to guess the word wins the round.

At the end, tally up points and announce a winner

5 Hot Seat

Procedure

 First, split your class into different teams (two is best, but if you have a large class,
any number could be used).
 Sit the students facing the board.
 Then take an empty chair - one for each team - and put it at the front of the class,
facing the team members. These chairs are the 'hot seats'.
 Then get one member from each team to come up and sit in that chair, so they are
facing their team-mates and have their back to the board.
 As the teacher, have a list of vocabulary items that you want to use in this game.
 Take the first word from that list and write it clearly on the board.
 The aim of the game is for the students in the teams to describe that word, using
synonyms, antonyms, definitions etc. to their team mate who is in the hot seat - that
person can't see the word!
 The student in the hot seat listens to their team mates and tries to guess the word.
  The first hot seat student to say the word wins a point for their team.
 Then change the students over, with a new member of each team taking their place in
their team's hot seat.
 Then write the next word…

This is a very lively activity and can be adapted to different class sizes. If you have too many
teams, perhaps some teams will have to wait to play. Or if the team sizes are large, you can
restrict how many team members do the describing. Have fun

7. Sentence betting

Sentence Betting  

Sentence betting is a fun ESL classroom activity that students are sure to enjoy. The basic
premise of the game involves students reading sentences written in English on the
whiteboard/blackboard and betting fake money on whether they think it's a correct sentence or
not.

Split your class into teams of around 3 or 4 students and hand out an even amount of fake
money to each team, you can keep track of their totals on the whiteboard/blackboard without
needing fake money but it makes the activity a lot more fun if they have something physical to
work with.

Give each team a piece of paper and write the first sentence on the whiteboard/blackboard.
Here are a few examples (remembering to omit the correct/incorrect part):

Correct: I want to buy a new computer.

Incorrect: Yesterday I will go to the library.
Correct: I love playing basketball after school.
Incorrect: You're photo is beautiful.

Give them around a minute to discuss the sentence in their groups before asking them to make
their bets on the piece of paper you gave them. Let the students know that if they're unsure
about a sentence then they should probably bet less money.

It's also a good idea to make the maximum bet half of what they currently have so they can't
lose all their money. For example, if you gave each team $10000 then the maximum bet would
be $5000. A typical bet might look like this:

Correct sentence: $5000

OR

Incorrect sentence: $3000

Collect the pieces of paper and hand out the winnings/collect the losses equal to how much
they bet. Play as many rounds as you like, get each team to count their winnings at the end and
see which team finishes with the most money. You might like to keep track of this on the
whiteboard/blackboard as the game progresses.
