This activity can be fun, frantic, and importantly EVERYBODY LISTENS TO THE QUESTIONS! If the contestants are right, they peg the Chaser back one space. If they answer wrong, the contestant has a chance to answer. In this game the Chaser has to answer a certain amount of questions in two minutes. You can make a small group of students the Chasers, and the rest of the class the contestants. This is easily adaptable to the classroom for review games. If the Chaser gets the question right, they move closer to the contestant, in the hope that they catch them. If they get a question right, they move a space closer to safety.

Good for… improving memory, revising vocabulary items You can add your own humour by including silly, irrelevant objects like ‘a rubber chicken’. The best thing about the actual show was that one prize was always a cuddly toy. You can do the same game to suit your topic, awarding points for each item/word recalled. They then had a set time to recall the objects, winning each one they could remember. The final challenge on the Generation Game was where contestants saw loads of objects pass by on a conveyor belt.
