Here are a few simple valentine’s games from this month’s newsletter:
First of all do CD1’s “Left and right” theme - http://www.genkienglish.net/leftright.htm

Left & Right Dates

1. Pin up pictures of famous celebrities, males on one side of the board, females on another.
2. One student is blindfolded at the back of the class.
3. The rest of the students guide them to the board using English (left, right, forward, backward etc.)
4. Once they reach the board the students guide their hand with “up, down, left, right” and finally “date!”
5. When everyone says “date” the blindfolded student reaches out and touches the celebrity picture in front of their hand.
6. They get a pretend date with that celebrity!

Superhero Dating

First of all do CD9’s Superhero Theme ( http://www.genkienglish.net/superhero.htm)

1. Each student chooses three “I can …” superpowers from the song (e.g. I can cook, I can stretch etc.) They write them down or just remember them.
2. On the board there are a series of celebrity photos.
3. On the back of each photo you have secretly written the three superhero powers they are looking for in a date.
4. Choose one of the celebrity photos and hold it up.
5. One student tries to get the date by reading out the three things they can do, I can… , I can…. etc.
6. If the three things match the celebrities wish list, the student gets the picture and the date!
7. If they don’t match you say “Sorry, you’re not for me” and get the next student to read their three “I cans….”
8. See who gets the hottest date!

Guess who’s your secret admirer!

This one can be a bit more advanced.

1. Put up lots of celebrity photos on the board.
2. The teacher (or even a student) says some clues about the celebrity, e.g. I have blond hair. I’m from America, I’m a movie star etc.
3. The first student to correctly guess which celebrity you are talking about gets the date!
