This is a good, non-preparation game for quickly
practicing new vocab.
1. The student who is sat in the far left corner of the
room (student A, on the left) and the student in front of
him or her (student B, on the right) stands up. The
student from behind (A) comes and stands next the student
in front (B).
2. You then ask a question that only these two students
are allowed to answer.
3. The quickest one to shout out the correct answer is
the winner. The other one is the loser
4. The loser sits down in the nearest empty seat (they
don't return to their own seat). The winner then moves
forward to the next desk, the person at this desk stands
up and ......
5. .......these two get another question. In this case
the boy on the left gets it right again!
6. So moves forward for another try with another partner.
But this time he loses, so the kid on the right gets to
move forward!!
7. They're ready for the question.....
8. And find it too difficult to answer!!!!!! 9. Keep repeating around the class!
Eventually all the students end up sat in completely
different seats, hence "Around the World"! The
winner is the person who moved furthest from their
original position. A class of 30 takes about 15 minutes
to go around everyone once.
