Description
Inspired by the classic game, Battleships can be used in classes of any size and any ability. The activity has been prepared to be played to practice present perfect question construction but it is easily editable and can be played to practice any topic and it has full audio and visual feedback. This activity is perfect to use in ONLINE classes and is a great way to engage students and increase student speaking time in those classes where students are reluctant to speak up.
Easily adaptable for lessons and students of all ages and abilities there are 3 different configurations so the game doesn’t become predictable for students, who love the 'class versus the teacher' aspect of the game!
Editing the activity is as simple as typing in the expressions / structures you wish to practice.
Students discuss between themselves and choose a square. One click on the square highlights that text and then students have a chance to discuss their answer.
After students / groups have given their answers another click drops the bomb and students find out if they have hit a battleship or not. Once a whole battleship has been revealed you can click it to sink it. The game is over when all the battleships have been revealed.
Update Notes:
v1.1 - Modified animation timings slightly from feedback and updated a few elements.
