One game I tried yesterday with great success, was a simple vocabulary miming game. I introduced vocabulary flashcards with actions and then had select students from two teams reenact them to the class to see which team could guess them first.
Most kids love to act at some point so I extended the concept to act out the grammar point which was a simple "I comb my hair every Wednesday". Kids 'acted' Wednesday by showing the number 3 on their fingers. The class loved it and it was an effective way for all the kids in the class to concentrate. This is definitely a great game to add variation to your classes and to keep kids looking forward to your lessons. For bigger classes I would use more groups.
