Objective
Sentence Fluency is an efl/esl vocabulary activity that is played in small groups. Learners work together and discuss how to form sentences.
Instructions
1. Divide players into small groups and stipulate to the class the word to be used for the game.
2. The first player in the group begins Sentence Fluency by saying the word. The second player adds a word so that when combined either in the front or at the back, both words make some sense. The third player adds another word so that when combined in any order, some sense of fluency is achieved. This process continues until the longest, complete sentence possible is formed.
3. A group secretary records the groups sentence. After all the groups have finished forming their sentences, ask the group secretaries to read out their completed sentences for the others to judge.
Example
Sentence Fluency begins with a learner calling out a word.
Student A: Bread
Student B: Baked bread.
Student C: Oven baked bread.
Student D: The oven baked bread ...
The group with the best sentence fluency and longest sentence wins the game.
