  2. Drill names, discuss and make it clear which names are Japanese.
  3. Model the game with the Japanese teacher.
  4. Play in groups.

  • Higher grades can ask different questions, like, "Do you have long hair?" or "Are you ugly?".

 

Teaching Suggestions:

  • Use the smart kids to get the ball rolling. The fun point of the game is where students have to guess the identity.
