“Honor your mistakes, they will lead to learning... Through this learning, more mistakes will be made… Through this process, mistakes are no longer mistakes… They become the act of learning.”

Preface: This is a game, but many learners cannot distinguish between “yes/no” question structures and cannot use them properly… So…
This can be seen as an “Activity” related to grammar… See a) through e) below
1) One person (the “master”) chooses a noun from any topic
Possible Topics: Animals/Things in the room/Things in the world Places/Food/People (famous or occupations)/Other
2) The master tells the players which topic is chosen... Then writes the noun choice (secretly) on a piece of paper
3) The players use Yes/No Question Types: Is/ Does/ Can
a) Is it… + adjective/prepositional phrase black/tall/fat/beautiful/smart/fast/dangerous/funny/useful in this room/at a coffee shop/in front of you/in your home
b) Does it… + verb eat meat/live in a zoo/climb trees/attack people
c) Does it have… + (adjective) noun big ears/horns/four legs/hot drinks/raw fish/many beaches
d) Can it… + verb swim/fly/catch mice/live in cold places/make loud sounds
e) Can we… + verb eat it/buy it/cook with it/drive it/write with it/play it
4) The winner guesses the noun and becomes the “master”
English verbs can be tricky… have fun and learn the verbal questions
