Activity 2 (^^_)

TEACHER SAYS

Procedure:

1)Ask the students about their knowledge regarding the activity of “Simon says”.

2)Make improvements by changing its name with “Teacher says”.

3)The teacher explains the rules of the game where the children are to obey the command that begins with "Teacher says." If the command does not begin with “ “Teacher says” (for example, "Jump up and down"), the players should ignore it.

4)Any player who obeys a command not preceded by "Teacher says" is out. Speed up the game as the children get good at it. The last player left wins.

                      

To make it tricky:

1)Give the orders fast, in rapid succession.

2)Cut the orders short, saying, "Teacher says, do this," and make the motion you want mimicked, such as putting your hands on your shoulders.

3)Do this step several times with a different command each time.

4)Quickly say "Do this," and make the motion -- put your hands on your waist, for example. Many players will automatically follow your lead (and end up out of the game).

5)Relax and say something like "Straighten up the line," in a casual manner. Again, several players will comply (and they'll be out).

6)Single out specific players, especially older ones who are harder to fool. Say, "Chris, move back (or up) a step." She might fall for it.

7)Ask a question every now and then. Point and ask, "What's your name again?" If the person answers, he's out.

8)Keeps the pace moving fast. Everyone will be laughing so hard, they won't care who's in or out, or who wins or loses.

Rationale of this game:

1)The changes of the name of the game actually just want to teach students to listen to their teacher and to make teacher easy to control the class.

2)To test the student’s ability in obeying the instructions and to increase their listening skills.

3)To enjoy a good laugh with the child who obeys a right and wrong command
