Board games allow learners to check their learning progress in a relaxing way. Teachers can draw their own Candyland-like board or use a template (e.g.,
Microsoft Word Games & Game Templates,
Board Game Makers and Templates). Draw pictures, use magazine pictures, or write words or letters on the board squares. Have learners play in groups. Provide each group with a game board, a die or a spinner, and a game piece for each learner. Learners take turn to throw the die. When they land on a square, they should read the word or say what the picture is. They can stay there if they are correct but have to go back to where they come from if they are not.
