WHAT MATTERS MOST TO YOU IN LIFE

This activity helps us stop and think. When we make a list of things we cannot buy, we start to see what we really value. Things like time, love, friendship, and peace of mind are very important — 

When we reflect, we ask ourselves: What makes me happy? What do I have that is special? 

This is simple, but very powerful. A few minutes of reflection can help us live with more meaning and appreciation every day.

ADJECTIVES ENDING IN -ED OR -ING

THIS TOPIC CAN BE PRACTISED THROUGH TWO TYPES OF QUIZ-STYLE EXERCISES; THE IDEA IS TO MAKE IT CHALLENGING


ANOTHER TYPE OF GAME TO PRACTISE THE ADJECTIVES

How a round works: A card flips with an -ING adjective (e.g. terrifying, satisfying, captivating...) and a hint example. The timer counts down. When time's up, a judge screen appears so the teacher or a designated judge can accept or reject each answer with one tap. Points are awarded and the scoreboard updates instantly.
