WORDWALL GAMES IN THE PRESENT SIMPLE

BAAMBOOZLE TEAM GAMES

COMMUNICATIVE ACTIVITIES IN THE PRESENT SIMPLE

1. Change Places If… ⭐

Students sit in a circle or stay at their desks. You call out:

Change places if you…

get up before 7.
have a pet.
play video games every day.
watch TikTok.
walk to school.
do homework after dinner.
go to bed after 11.

Everyone for whom the sentence is true changes places.

Then let students become the teacher and make the sentences.

Extra speaking: Stop someone after moving:

Teacher: Do you play video games every day?
Student: Yes, I do.
Teacher: What games do you play?

2. Stand Up If… + Guess the Student

Say:

Stand up if you play a sport.

Students stand up.

Then choose one:

What sport do you play?
I play basketball.

Next, a student takes over:

Stand up if you watch Netflix every week.

After several rounds, turn it into a memory game:

Who plays basketball?
Does Marc play basketball?

Students answer:

Yes, he does. / No, he doesn't.

So you get I/you + third person naturally.

3. Present Simple Speed Dating 🔥

Make two lines of students facing each other.

Give them a topic orally:

ROUND 1 — Morning routine

They have one minute to ask each other questions:

What time do you get up?
Do you have breakfast?
How do you come to school?

Then:

CHANGE!

One line moves one person.

Next rounds:

Free time
Weekends
Food
Social media
Sport
School
Music

At the end, randomly ask:

What does Laura do at weekends?

Now they need the third-person -s.

4. Who Am I? — Present Simple Edition 🕵️

One student thinks of a famous person or character.

The others can only ask Present Simple questions:

Do you live in Spain?
Do you sing?
Do you play football?
Do you make videos?
Do you appear on TV?

But once they discover the gender/person type, encourage:

Does he play football?
Does she sing?

Maximum 10 questions before they have to guess.

This one can become surprisingly competitive!

5. The Human Lie Detector 😂

One student comes to the front.

They say something about their habits:

I get up at 5 every morning.

The class interrogates them:

What time do you go to bed?
Why do you get up so early?
What do you do at 5?
Do you have breakfast?
Does your family get up at 5 too?

The student must keep answering—even if the original sentence is completely invented.

After about one minute:

TRUE OR FALSE?

Everyone votes.

Then reveal the answer.

This is especially good because students have a real reason to listen and ask follow-up questions.

⭐ One more: the 5-second challenge

This is brilliant as a quick warmer.

You say:

Tell me THREE things you do every morning. GO!

They have 5 seconds:

I brush my teeth, I have breakfast, I check my phone.

Other challenges:

Three things you never do at school!
Three things your mother/father does every day!
Three things you do at weekends!
Three things your best friend likes!
