This is a fun game people often play at parties. You can use it to practise the past participle.
I'll start by asking a question starting with "Have you ever...?". The first person to comment will answer "yes" or "no" and then ask another "Have you ever" question. The next person will answer that question and write another question.
The game can go on and on for days, months, or years...Remember to answer the question from the last comment. Let's avoid taboo subjects and foul language.
Let's begin!
"Have you ever been to Canada?"
(The game is well under way. Don't answer this question about Canada. Answer the question from the last person who left a comment. Make sure to look at the last comment, not the first.)
---------------------------------
Grammar tip: To write a proper "have you ever" sentence you will need to know the past participle (not simple past) of the verb you use. Look it up in a search if you aren't sure ("past participle swim"). Even native speakers use the wrong ones sometimes!
Example: go=been; write=written; swim=swum
Have you ever been to Mexico?
Have you ever written a story?
Have you ever swum in the ocean?
