The
teacher tells the students two true and one false “I have…” sentence. Students
ask her questions (to which she can lie in response about the false one) and
try to spot which one is false.
The classgroup is devided into smal 2-4 persons groups. Each group throws a
dice. The bigger number they get, the earlier they start - this is to make the order of the groups to take turns. First turn is only for asking questions - the
questions must contain PP structure ("Have you..." etc.). Each group
asks one question in an order that was settled by throwing a dice. From the
second turn on each group after asking the question has the right to have a
guess. They lose that right if the question doesn't contain PP structure or is
gramatically incorrect. If they guess correctly, they win. If their guess is
incorrect, we cross out the sentence and now we have only 2 left, so the other
groups have a bigger chance to guess which one is false.
According to the level of the class the sentences are simplier or more complex.
In the more advanced classes the groups are also marked for their questions
with the points from 1 to 5. In case none of the group guesses the false
sentence, the winner is the one who gathered more points.
1. I have traveled to Greece.
2. I have ridden an elephant. (F)
3. I have cooked a paella.
How to make a "have you" question from a present simple question?
e. g. instead of "Did you like Greece?" you should ask "Have you
liked Greece?"
1. It has taken me a long time to learn Turkish.
2. I have never been that cold as I was in Turkey.
3. I haven't driven a car for more than a year. (F)
Students must think on the strategy – better to have a guess or wait for
another turn?
Students focus on using Present Perfect - they practice the structure by
speaking and memorize the 3rd form of the irregular verbs.
