InВ the end ask aВ question that will make ALL the students switch on their cameras, for example: В«Are you studying English online now?В»

It’s Going to Be (spelling game)
Number ofВ students: 2В -10
Time: 5—7 min
Age: 10 – 12
Resources: online whiteboard
This game will help your students practice spelling words inВ different categories.
Think of a word and write its first letter on the whiteboard, saying: «It’s going to be a MONKEY» (write only the first letter on the whiteboard – M…)
Any student can continue by choosing another word that starts with the letter M, saying: «No, it’s going to be MANGO» and writes A next to the letter M – MA…
Another student changes the word again: «No, it’s going to be MAD» and writes the letter D next to the first two letters – MAD…
Students continue playing: «No, it’s going to be MADNESS» and write the letter N – MADN…
Set time limits of 5—10 seconds. If no one can continue the word without changing it into a new one, the last student who offered a letter should spell the word up to the end – M-A-D-N-E-S-S. If there are no mistakes, this student is the winner.

Say “Hello” to… (warmer)
Number of students: 2 – 12
Time: 3—5 min
Age: first year graders
Resources:В none
This warmer will help your students «tune in to the lesson» and revise target vocabulary like toys, furniture, school objects, family members. After greeting your students, suggest saying hello to the objects and people in their rooms. For example, you can ask them: «Say «Hello’ to the window / door / school bag / bathroom / your nose / granny!» etc.
This activity makes students move around and have fun while looking for the objects you mention. But don’t worry! They will always come back to their computers to get your next command because they like it a lot.
