Tell Me Why
Level: Medium to Difficult
The point of this game is to try to answer questions. We often take for granted many things but if we consider them carefully sometimes they are not necessarily logical. These questions are intended to make students speak. In most of the cases there are no "right" or "wrong" answers. Here are some examples:
If you`re so WISE can you tell me WHY:
Some birds have wings but never FLY.
not all the monkeys have a tail BEHIND.
Leopards have spots and TIGERS STRIPES.
Grooms dress in black and BRIDES in WHITE.
People wave their hands when they say good BYE.
The ocean´s blue and so is the SKY.
Our EYES shed tears when we CRY.
We must WRITE letters from left to RIGHT.
Roosters crow in the mornings at six or FIVE.
People throw RICE to the groom and BRIDE.
We stretch and yawn when we feel so TIRED.
As you can see I repeated the /ai/sound to create a special sensation to the ears. These questions can also help you to teach pronunciation and intonation if you read them with the proper rhythm.
