Preparing students for the First Certificate or any B2-level exam can feel slow and repetitive at times. The students have been studying for years to find themselves faced with essentially familiar grammar points but with more complexities and exceptions to the rules, and tediously long lists of collocations and phrasal verbs that they are charged with memorising in the hope they might reproduce them in an article or review. I feel your pain, and theirs… And that’s why I ask that you give ESL Escape Room a try.
The Upper-Intermediate pack puts in the palm of your hands 90 puzzles, each of which are designed to test the students knowledge for B2/B2+ level grammar and vocabulary. Simply pick out 5 to 8 puzzles that are relevant to the topics you’ve been teaching and take note of the code that those puzzles produce, and BOOM, in the space of 5 minutes you’ve prepared a fun, interactive, and competitive game that reviews the material you’ve been working on whilst encouraging students to work together and use their reading, speaking, and listening skills to solve the mystery and escape the room before the other teams!
The vocabulary topics are particularly well suit-suited if you’ve been using either the ‘Gold Experience B2’ or ‘Compact First for Schools’ books.
Each session:
- Can be tailor-made to match what you’ve been teaching.
- Last anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour depending on how many puzzles you select.
- Be played individually, in pairs or in teams.
- Be played with students sat at their desks, more dynamically with the puzzles stuck up on the classroom walls, or through video conference platforms.
