judd_1977 asked:


I teach here in Bangkok Thailand about 150 students aged 6-12. Tomorrows lesson is about counting 1-20 and then the kids are suppost to say how old they are after being asked “How old are you?”. I want to make it fun for them so i told them we would play a game. I have done a search on many ESL websites but am having a hard time finding a fun game to get all the kids involved. Can someone help me?
