Dating Game - Complete Teacher Resource Kit & Instructio

Post by HeatherC » Thu Jul 31, 2008 7:36 am

Looking for a fun speaking activity to practice introductions, asking and answering questions, and discussing hobbies? I have used this spin off of "The Dating Game" in a number of different settings and it is always a hit with students.

Preparation:

1) At home print out the four different sets of characters included in this article. There are four sets of characters, Female Contestants A &B, and Male Contestants A & B.

2) Cut each set along the dotted lines and put each in a separate envelope.

3) Label the envelopes Female A, Female B, Male A and Male B and put each set in it designated envelope.

4) You will need at least one set for every four students. If you have a large class, you may want to make two sets per each group of four so the game can move faster.

Playing the Game:

1) Explain the concept of "The Dating Game" to students. Draw a diagram on the board showing one female interviewing three male contestants. Explain that in the US there was a TV show called "The Dating Game." Explain that the female is looking to find the best date of the three men she is interviewing. If you are in a more conservative setting, you can change this to "The Marriage Game" and explain that the woman is interviewing potential husbands to find a match.
