 Get your students moving, acting, laughing and practicing grammar with this simple idea!

Level: basic 
Grammar topics: present continuous and adverbs of manner
Skill: speaking
Material needed: slips with verbs and adverbs

Instructions:
Prepare two sets of flashcards, half with verbs and half with adverbs. Call a student to come to the front and select one card from each set.The student mimes the phrase and the class has to guess the verb and adverb by saying a complete sentence e.g “ She is cooking slowly” “He is dancing angrily”.

This can be turned into a game or competition if you divide the class into different groups!

Some verbs that can be used: COOK/RUN/SPEAK/SING/WALK/DANCE/SLEEP/WRITE/SWIM/CRY
Some adverbs that can be used: SLOWLY/FAST/HAPPILY/SADLY/ANGRILY/CAREFULLY/FUNILLY/QUIETLY/SERIOUSLY/BEAUTIFULLY
