28 Game rules Equipment: Die and counters Aim: To practise questions and answers on personal identification from words found on forms. To prepare and practise form filling activities. Instructions: Each player takes a turn to throw the die and moves his/her counter the number of spaces shown on the dice. The player then asks the other player the question indicated by the word they have landed on. For example, if player lands on surname he/she asks the other player What s your surname? and the other player answers the question. Age: How old are you? Nationality: What s your nationality? Surname: What s your surname? Then player 2 throws the dice and so on. The first player to reach FINISH is the winner. Note: Playing board games may be a new concept to the learner. You may need to very carefully explain and model how to play the game. It would be helpful to have a list of questions written out because forming questions is a difficult task in itself.
