The Game ! Character Search !
- The aim of the game is to use worksheet to find all of the characters.
- Students walk around the room and interview as many other students as possible.
- When two students meet, they play rock, paper, scissors to decide who is the interviewer and who is the interviewee.
- The students must use only the target language, as specified on the worksheet, and the interviewee must give
a 'yes' response before the interviewer moves on to the next target language question.
- Once the interview is over, the interviewee signs their name in the space provided corresponding to their
character card.
- The interview game has a life span of about 10 or 15 minutes.
- Give out rewards as you see fit and that's it!
