Spoken English Charades

Eric and I teach supplemental Spoken English classes before and after school. Here, we're using a game of charades to teach verb conjugations in the present progressive tense. Listen closely and you can hear students yelling out, "She is dancing!, She is flying!, etc." Eric and I often use games to teach lessons, the idea being that learning - be it about pronunciation, grammar or syntax - doesn't have to be about monotonous, rote memorization. Although that's something we take for granted in America, it really seems to be a breath of fresh air for Kadod's classrooms.
