(7) Gap-fill madness - 'Gap-fill madness' is a very easy-to-prepare game I stage to automatise verb production and decoding skills at the same time. Students, working in groups of three, are given a list of twelve simple sentences (see below) in which the target verb is gapped. They then compete with each other at filling the gap in the shortest time possible. The person who does it faster and with 'decent' pronunciation wins. I usually stage three rounds per player, the shortest time overall winning. Whilst one player speaks the others time them and monitor their accuracy and pronunciation. Pairing students by ability a must!
