Materials needed: Copies of the “board” game provided for each small group. Each group also
needs a marker for each player (a nickel, a dime, a pencil eraser, a button, etc.), and each group
needs a coin to flip.
Students should use the questions as prompts, and rather artificially, speak with a few full
sentences in order to practice the use of gerunds and infinitives. However, beyond that,
encourage students to converse freely about the questions, asking each other questions for more
details.
