With all the games on the site, one question that often crops up is “Do I really have to do a different game each lesson?”. The easy answer is, of course, “no, not at all”.

Whilst the English content of the lessons should always be on an upward spiral ( there’s not point just doing “fruits” for 3 lessons), if the kids are still into using the same game but using today’s new English, then by all means save the time that explaining a new game would take and use the same idea again.

But of course don’t play a game to death. The trick with a good game is the same as a good TV show or movie franchise, cut it off at the peak. That way the kids will all be asking for it and will love when you bring it back for a review lesson, but do we really need a 6th series of “24″?
