Dictation Lessons

Hi dear colleagues
I have tried one of our friends from Syria techniques. They showed it in thier conference. To dictate English in a funny and interactive way. It was very wonderfl to my students. I wrote the group of words which I want the students to remember in two pieces of paper and hanged them on each board side. Then I asked two volunteer groups of students to sit in groups. I told them that they have to choose one of each group who is good in writing. Then with time each group member comes to the board with his pencil and reads as much as he can memorise of the words and puts a mark with the pencil where he reached and runs back to the group's writer and dictates him the words. At the same time another member of the group runs to the bourd and does the same but begining where his friend has just put the mark. So it becomes a competition between the two groups. And the winner group is the one that writes the most words in due time. My students enjoyed this game and they learned with great fun.
I hope to read your comments dear friends.
