    Past/Present Simple Practice Charades Activity 

     
    Topic: ​Using past and/or present simple verbally 
     
    Materials: 
    ● Create a list/ cards with actions in the past simple that students can act out 
    ○ Or simply verbally say them into the ear of the student whose turn it is 
    to act it out 
    ○ Prepare a list of things students can act out beforehand  
    ■ Ex: brush your teeth, watch tv, walk to school, make a sandwich, 
    etc 
     
    Lesson Plan Breakdown: 
    1. Introduce/ refresh student memory on how to transform the present simple 
    to the past simple & on in which scenarios each are used 
    a. Present simple = “Everyday I …” (used for routines) 
    b. Past simple = “Yesterday I …” (used for something that happened in the 
    past) 
    2. Ask for a show of hands of who has played charades before / knows how to 
    play so you can get an idea of who already understands the way the game 
    works  
    3. Then explain how charades is played 
    a. Tell them that in charades, someone acts something out using 
    motions, gestures, but no words - and the others must guess what it is 
    that they are acting out  
    b. Then explain this specific version of charades: tell them that one 
    student will come and be given something to act out to the class - the 
    student will then act it out and the class must try to guess what they 
    are acting out & say a sentence of what they were acting out in [teacher 
    choose whether in past or present simple or both] 
     
    Ideas for Things to Have Students Act Out: 
    ● Brush your hair 
    ● Brush your teeth  
    ● Walk to school 
    ● Make a sandwich  
    ● Kick a football 
    ● Paint a picture  
    ● Walk my dog
