PREPARE - 3 - Review Games - Units 01-04

This document provides instructions for a classroom game called "I Think You're Lying!" that reviews grammar and vocabulary from levels 1-4 of a textbook. Students take turns rolling dice to select a statement from a game sheet and saying if it's true or false for them. Other students guess if they're lying or telling the truth, and score points for correct guesses or fooling others. The goal is to encourage communication and get to know each other while revising targeted language.

Follow-up activity
Students remember as many of the true sentences as
they can and write them down.
How to score
Players who guess correctly whether Player 1 is lying or
telling the truth win one point. So in the example above,
Player 2 wins one point and Player 3 and Player 4 don’t
win any points. Player 1 wins two points for fooling two
people. Now it is Player 2’s turn to roll the dice.
If the same square is landed on more than once, players
must change the underlined part of the sentence each time,
e.g. I live on the ground floor. → I live on the second floor.
Play continues until the teacher calls time. The player with
the most points is the winner.
