Transcript for error correction relay race:
Hi, this is Jackie from eslspeaking.org. Today, I'm going to talk about this very simple activity. It's an error correction relay race.
I really like making error correction into a relay race because it turns something kind of old and boring (error correction) into something kind of new and exciting by making it a race. It works best for kids because if you call anything a game they'll be excited about it and this legitimately is kind of a game so you're not actually lying to them when you say this.
I make up a worksheet that has around 10 to 15 errors on it. Maybe it'll be a paragraph and the errors could be things like spelling or grammar, punctuation, kind of whatever is appropriate for the level of students that you're teaching and you also could hit the highlights of what you've been teaching in the previous weeks.
I put students into groups of four and then I have them, if possible, sit at desks that are back to back to back to back. The first student gets the paper and they have to read the paragraph or whatever they have and correct one mistake. Once they do that, they pass it back to that next person who has to correct one mistake, one mistake, one mistake. I tell them how many mistakes are on it so if for example, I have maybe teams of four, I would try to come up with 12 mistakes so each student would get to go three times.
When they're done, they put up their hands. I come to check. If they're correct, then they get it. If they're not correct, I usually will let them have a few more chances or if another team may have won in the meantime, in which case I would stop the activity.
All right, so if you like this activity please be sure to check out my book 101 ESL Activities for Kids and also hit like, subscribe and I will catch you later. Thanks, everybody.
