Cambridge KEY (KET) Speaking Game




I have started preparing some of my students for the Cambridge Exams this year. One of the exams we have to prepare for is the KEY English Test. A KEY or KET qualification shows your ability to communicate in simple situations.

I made this game for my students to practice the first part of the speaking exam. The first part of the exam is an interview where the examiner asks you some personal questions about yourself for 5 to 6 minutes. This game has 28 typical questions that may be asked during the speaking exam.

This game is for students to practice the first part of the speaking exam in the KEY KET Cambridge Exam

To play is easy. Put your students into small groups, 3 or 4, give them a dice and ask them to make some counters. I give them a small piece of paper and on it they write the first letter of their name, they colour it, draw a shape,etc. Answer the question they land on or ask someone else the question. First to the Finish wins.

My students usually finish the game in 15 minutes, so its a good warmer to start or even to finish a class. Walk around the class, listen to their answers and correct afterwards with the whole class the common problems that you have heard.

You can download the game here on this word document, KETGame. Or watch a YouTube video with 35+ possible questions.

Enjoy and don't forget to share.

Cambridge KEY (KET) Speaking Part 2 Cards

Image
In the second part of the KET speaking exam the examiner gives the students a card with some information or some ideas for questions. Basically the students ask and answer simple questions about daily life for 3 to 4 minutes. Usually five questions and their answers. I have made 6 cards for my students to work with. Some different material to work with is always good even if they do laugh at my drawings. Download them here if you like, KETCards .  For part 1, check out this video  I made on YouTube. Please share, etc if you find them useful in your own class. Enjoy.

Past Irregular Verb Game: Battleship

 Here is a fun game for your students to practice the Past Irregular Verbs. In pairs they have to sink each others ships to win the game. To shoot at a square they have to say the past form of the verb in the square. Easy. Most of your students will have played Battleship before. There are 49 verbs to practice with. For students who are learning the verbs for the first time, give them a list to work from or tell them they can use their books for help.  To make it more difficult, ask your students to spell the verb or make a sentence with the verb in the past. Either affirmative, negative or interrogative. Teach them words like HIT, MISS and SUNK beforehand. You can download here: Battleship
