About this template
Try this fully interactive, in-class speaking experience designed for ESL learners. Everything is integrated on a single screen, so there’s no wasted time switching between windows.
How to play
- Divide the class into teams and assign each team a colored piece.
- Select a student (manually or using the Randomizer widget).
- Roll the die and move the team's piece accordingly.
- The student answers the prompt where they land and must speak for 30 seconds without stopping.
- If they hesitate, can't answer, or misuse the target language (TL), move back two spaces.
- First team to reach the finish wins!
tip:
Aya recommends demonstrating a full turn before starting as well as making sure the language in the game matches the TL (e.g., avoid present perfect questions if you're practicing superlatives).
