TEACHER'S NOTES
Name Three
Introduction
In this passive voice game, students practice making 'Name three’
questions in the past and present passive.
Procedure
Divide the class into groups of three.
Give each group a set of cards. Tell the students to shuffle the
cards and place them face down in a pile on the table
Students take it in turns to pick up a card and make a ‘Name
three’ question by completing the gap with the passive form of
the verb in brackets. The student then reads out the question to
the group.
The student does this without showing the card to the other group
members
The other group members then race to answer by naming three
things belonging to the category.
The first student to do this successfully keeps the card.
The student with the most cards at the end of the game is the
winner. Afterwards, have a class feedback session to go through
the questions and possible answers with the class.
