what's a bomb game? I tried looking it up but couldn't find out.

BAAM would be an example. There are dozens of pre made games.

Thanks for that info. Fishead. I didn't know anyone else had made a bomb game in ppt or is it in ppt???? Is it like BAAM? I thought my creation was pretty unique. Here's an example
My first version of BAAM didn't go over too well but I like it. It was all bloody and about "murder" - based on the much feted "Mafia" game. Here it is. Also, this early one. Little Gun/Big Gun. Oh how time has flown!
there is also a "Monster" game that is a few years old, making the circuit. Pretty cute.

| I do about one a month or one every two "Units". I try to vary it up with lots of games- In general the first lesson is writing and looking at the vocab, lots of visual and recall and the 2nd lesson is writing and application |

My students seem to respond well to jeopardy-type games where some of the options are not based on the textbook material, but are making lists/guessing things, in which they get to access the English they already know (as opposed to just learning).
So for example, one question might be "name 5 body parts" and I just call on the students who put up their hands first (whereas most of the questions are regurgitating the target phrase). |

Not often, but when I was in elementary school I never met the Chinese teacher once a week as later classes did. I hear he spoke little to no English and was told at his orientation not to bore us. |
