Rules/Explanation:
This is an activity in which students spot English mistakes. They spot the “fake” sentences and correct them, to gain points. These sentences are called “imposters”, hence the game is called “English Imposters.”
Students play in teams, or in a special needs class just by themselves. The goal is to guess which sentence out of 4 has a mistake, and is thereby an “imposter”.
So they have to guess one out of red, blue, green, and orange.
You can also make it harder by getting them to write the correct sentences. You could give 1 point for getting the correct imposter and another 1 point for writing the sentence correctly, for example.
Then there is “Level 2”, where the number of imposters varies from 0 to 4. It’s a fun twist. And, it actually forces them to analyse all 4 sentences.
Length of the game depends on the number and difficulty of the questions.
I have also used it to practice aspects Japanese often find difficult, like using the words a, an, the, to correctly etc. SOV/SVO errors, etc. The format is pretty easy to edit in powerpoint. You could change it up in various ways.
