“COMPARISON CHAIN”

o Divide your class into teams.

o Pick a topic; ex: animals
o Set a timer for an appropriate amount of time...say 1 minute.
o Pick which team goes first.
o Pick which student goes first.
o When T say “go” the first student must use the target language to make a sentence. Ex, “Dogs are bigger
than cats."
o Then the student immediately to beside them has to link to the second adjective in student 1’s sentence to
form a new sentence of their own. Cats are smarter than birds.
o Continue around the group members until the timer expires. The most important rule is that in this game
is that, students can not reuse any comparative adjectives. So, T should display new list of comparative
adjectives as presented in the next slide.
o Add up the the number of points made that’s their score.
o Reset the timer and change the topic of the nouns to (food) and repeat the process with the second team.
