Opening the website took me forever plus the site was just a blank page. I trust it's an interesting game and students will like it. This LP is related to the article you reviewed huh?
ReplyDeleteLike the follow up activity
Playing games during class? Ohooo me likey! But constant attention would be needed from the teacher to make sure the objectives are achieved. Kalau tak, the students would just be playing the games without paying much focus to the learning activity
ReplyDeleteive tried the game.love it!
ReplyDeletei don't quite understand how the game works, plus without the handouts, i don't really have the idea of what the lesson is about. However, i believe it will grasp the students' attention as long as the 'loading' did not take up too much time.
ReplyDeletePlaying games??!!! hohoho.. if only you were my teacher back in school days.. man, would i get an A for every test.. hahahahaha...
ReplyDeleteSimple activity, I like!!! but need to monitor the students. cant have the students playing games without finishing the worksheet.. and you will encounter trouble when trying to pry the students off the computer when lesson is over.. Games can gives you +ve and -ve outcomes..
I would say this again & again but I just love games! However i suggest that you prepare a more comprehensive task sheet to keep their focus from astray. Cool idea on the follow-up activity dude! ;)
ReplyDeletei am not into games...but i bet the students will love it very much... english+games=fun...
ReplyDeleteinteresting LP... =)
Students and games..CANNOT be seperated..heeee~~definitely students would love and excited to be involved in this lesson...=)
ReplyDeleteWow... Thanks for all the comments :)
ReplyDeleteSorry it took forever for me to respond, I just got back from the States, where apparently if you don't have a laptop, access to the internet is just an idea (unless of course, you can afford the ridiculous price for temporary WiFi access in the hotel room).
Exciting! I like it!
