Here's a very simple ESL vocabulary activity that works well for any age, almost any level, and almost any topic that you have. It's called most words. I choose a big long word that fits in with the theme of the day. Maybe I'm doing a Halloween lesson, so I could choose Halloween. Or maybe Christmas, I could use Christmas. You could also do it for a ton of other things. For example, maybe you're talking about animals, you could do an elephant. Anything really works as long as it has a good number of letters to it. And then I put students into small groups and I write on the word on the board and they have to come up with as many words as possible out of that word. For example, I'm doing this on the spot, I should have maybe planned ahead of time. But for example, maybe Christmas, so what are some words that you can make out of Christmas? Has or chart. Is that right? Okay perfect, so things like that. I kind of make a little code. If students come up with, say your word is seven letters long, and they can make another word that's seven letters, I would give them maybe 10 points. If it's six letters, I give them eight points, and so on and so on. I give each group maybe three or four minutes and they can try to write down as many words as possible. And then we can check answers, just in kind of a fun way, just as a whole class together. Or, you can make it into a kind of like more of a competition and actually seriously check and then count up points, and that kind of thing. Okay, so that's just kind of a very simple warm-up, time filler kind of end-of-the-class activity if you have a couple minutes. Check it out.
