Indefinite Pronouns Speaking Activity Prove it!

If you’re following along with the latest activities, you’ll see 3 other activities being published at the same time with a similar concept. Why are you seeing three nearly identical looking activities? Well, yours truly has taken on a new group of students at the A2 level and desperately needs a good way to practice a few basic bits of grammar (quantifiers, indefinite pronouns, modal verbs and adverbs of degrees) while getting the group to meld together and feel more comfortable. That meant I needed a good speaking activity… So, I adapted one of my favorite ESL ExpertZ activities to fit my specific needs and I think they can help everyone else at the same time, too! Enjoy this A2 indefinite pronouns speaking activity with your students today!

“Tell me without telling me…”

If you know anything about our PROVE IT! activities, then you can skip the instructions and get to playing. For those who are new, you can probably figure it out, but just in case…

1. Students play individually or in teams. Display the game board and fill out the scoring sheet at the bottom with names.
2. Choose one of the cards in the middle with a fact your students will have to prove.
3. In turns, students must prove this fact while also using one of the time expressions around the edge.
4. A logical and grammatically correct response earns a point.
5. Each time an expression is used, check the box – it cannot be used again this round.
6. Stay on the same card until all the boxes have been checked or your students cannot come up with any more sentences.
7. Uncheck all the boxes and move onto the next card.
8. Play as few or as many cards as you’d like or have time for.
9. The student or team with the most points at the end wins.

For example

Prove that you have lots of friends.

Student A: Everybody loves me!

Student B: I don’t invite anyone to parties because they always invite me first.

Student C: etc.
