Process:
Introduce verb vocabulary to students first. After students have learned the verbs you can ask random questions such as: Can you jump? Can you fly? e.g.. Students should answer “Yes, I can …. “, when they can do the action or “No. I cannot ….”, when they cannot do the action.

Game Idea:
Flashcard Act Out - Similar to charades or miming, choose one or more students to come to the front. Show a flash card and have the students act it out. Reward the first student to guess the correct answer. This can be used with many subjects like sports, actions, verbs, animals, etc.
