All of you have seen multiple choice tests.
They usually give you 4 options to choose from.
The results of multiple choice tests are better than the results
of other tests which do not give you options to choose from.
What if you could incorporate this idea into a game?
Wouldn’t it make learning English easier and more fun?
Yes, it does!
Making English phrases becomes fun!
You could teach gerunds on the very first game!
The student doesn’t have to write a whole test to know if he
is correct or not. The game allows the student to receive points
for getting it correct immediately or he or she loses a turn for getting
it incorrect. The rewards are immediate! The student will want to know
why the phrase he played is incorrect. The teacher will tell him and the
student will remember because he doesn’t want to lose more turns and
wants to win the game. The other students will also be paying attention
to the answers because they will also be intent on winning the game
by not commiting the same mistakes.
The learning process becomes cumulative throughout the duration of the game.
The rules of the game are the same as of the English language and the student
will remember these rules a lot easier than from a book or from a normal class.
The student will remember immediately that “TO BE” is followed by the next
verb in “ING” ending, that “TO HAVE” is followed by the next verb in
past participle, usually “ED”, or that “TO DO” is followed by the next verb
in base form, regardless of knowing what the verb means. He will remember
the correct form of the verb depending on the auxiliary verb.
Curiosity will make him ask what the verb means.
This is priceless!
The game teaches English effectively and in a quick and fun way.
Teachers and students will have fun with PHRAZZLEME!
Please read the contents of the web page and try one.
If you find that it doesn’t work, simply return the game and I will refund
your money immediately.
That’s right! It’s guaranteed!

It teaches to form phrases, not just words.
It encourages students to make long phrases since there is more points
awarded for it.
It also makes students use words like "because, since, although, however, even though".
The learning process becomes competitive and cumulative since students learn from each others' mistakes.
Using, learning, teaching gerunds from the first game makes the game easier to play.
It's a hoot![/b]
