finally ,the semester is breathing the last stages and has come to an end and as you know , , the new improved curriculum has been of great use to Ss and teachers as well
you may have encountered several difficulties and unexpected reaction to the new books during classes such as Ss' dullness , boredom , rich vocab, inactiveness of most of the Ss which may have resulted in frustration for both Ss and teachers.
I came up with some strategies , interactive activities and games
I will post them one by one every day for next year inshallah

The Board Game
Materials needed: dice, markers, board game.
Before class, make a special board game practicing the target lesson.
Start with a blank board.
If it’s a hard copy, print words, symbols, or questions in each square.
If it’s on your computer (a basic board can be EASILY made with the graph feature of Word), type words or cut and paste pictures or symbols into each square.
Divide students into 2–3 person groups and give each group a board game, dice, and markers.
Students will roll the die and move their marker to the appropriate square.
They should answer the question, make a sentence, or identify the picture.
If a student can not perform, he/she moves back to the original position.
The first student to reach “finish” wins.
Additional rules:
If the activity permits, you can ask students to give as many answers as numbers rolled on the dice.
Other players should act as the judge and call on the teacher if disagreement occurs.
This game can be used:
To review anything.
To practice any grammar structure.
To go over individual sounds, word stress or intonation.
To provide conversation topics.
To review vocabulary words
