Mystery Skype 2015-2016

Have I told you about the joy of using Mystery Skype inside the classroom??

I know I have, but as time goes by and I use it even more, I become more excited about the benefit it has on my students’ language confidence! It has worked wonders!!! You can see my post from last year’s March to see how you can go about organizing the game in your class.

This year we have been meeting via Skype interesting classes, lovely people and extraordinary cultures!

We played with European countries such us Hungary, Sweden, Spain, the Czech Republic and other beautiful countries that are further away like the USA, India and of course our friends from Bahrain! How curious they are to know how other students live around the world! How many things they learn through this cross-curricular educative activity! How well they work as a team in order to find the location of the other class! This is group work at its best!

We have 5 more games coming up and we really can’t wait! Here are some photos of A and B class students enjoying the game and talking to peers from other countries.
