The students will be able to recognize English vocabulary of things, pronounce and spell them correctly and also say the right password to the giants.
Materials:
1. List of words in several setting and theme (kitchen, bathroom, dining room, fruit, animals, stationary, etc)
2. blank sheets of paper
3. pens or pencils
4. Stars from paper
5. costumes of knights and giants
Method:
The teacher prepares the setting first by putting the chairs in 5 for the posts of giants who guard the princess and await the knights. One team becoming the knights and the other are giants. The knights are equipped by the things which needed by the giants so they can pass.
The game starts by having the knights to collect 5 things that they assumed will be asked by the giants, ex. things in the classroom (eraser, pen, pencil, ruler, book, etc). The knights, then, hide the things behind their back and say the password to the giants, ex. Giant…Giant in the wood, let me bring the goods for you.
EXAMPLE: Giant = I want a pencil to draw my house
Knight = (if he owns the pencil) Here you are, a pencil for you!
Giant = Alrighty then, you may pass.
Knight = Gratitude, my mighty giant.
Then the knight keeps continuing to give things for the Giants. The knights only have three chances to change his/her things for the Giants. If in three chances the Knights couldn’t give what Giants need, then he/she fails and must be replaced by the other Knights, until there is a knight can pass all Giants and set free the princess.
