ENGLISCHE WEIHNACHTSAKTIVITÄTEN ENGLISH CHRISTMAS ACTIVITIES ENGLISH FOR CHILDREN CHRISTMAS I HAVE, WHO HAS? BEGINNER ENGLISH CHRISTMAS I HAVE, WHO HAS? TWO GAMES AND CHALLENGES 

A lively and communicative whole-group language learning game. The repetitive nature of the questions and answers, supported by the visual prompts of the English Christmas images, makes it perfect for practising, reinforcing and refreshing English Christmas vocabulary.  The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too.

There are 32 Christmas words in English, and there's a UK Christmas theme with some of the words, for example Christmas cracker, mince pies and Christmas pudding.  The aim of the game is to arrange the cards in the relevant order. Students can either create a human chain, holding the cards themselves, or a card line, on the floor, a longish table or other flat surface.  It's likely that students will have more than one card each per game, depending on the size of the class. The vocabulary and images provide a really useful stimulus for discussion about Christmas traditions and practices in the UK and other English-speaking countries.

There are two games, each with a different challenge:

= Challenge 1: the nouns written out in full with the definite article, and the Q & A I have... Do you have...? Students walk around, calling out the question.

= Challenge 2: the nouns are in a different order, with only the definite article, and the Q & A Do you have...? Yes / No, I have... . This challenge puts students’ vocabulary recall to the test, and students walk around, addressing other students individually.

Play either as a whole-group game, or as a team game - which team can complete the challenge first? You can either play the challenges consecutively, or as a team game, swapping the challenges so that each team has a chance to play both challenges.
