“When was the last time you”…game

This activity is a modification of a few different activities. This is a game for students to practice making “When was the last time you…” questions, responding to them and asking follow-up questions. Divide students into groups of 4-10. Print out some play money and distribute it equally to each student. There are many places on the web you can find some play money, but to save you a little time looking, you can go to http://donnayoung.org/math/m01/playmon/unit_mony.pdf. Cut out and shuffle the “Tell the Truth” or “Tell a Lie” cards at the end of this page and place them in one pile at the center of the table. Model “When was the last time you” + simple past for your students, as well as ways to respond to “When was the last time you” questions.
