A great chain and memory game. Works best with larger classes.

Yesterday I....
This is a simple game to set-up and requires no pre-planning.

How to play: You can use almost lead in phrase, but for this example I'll use "Yesterday I..."
The first student (or the teacher) starts off by saying: "Yesterday I went to the park." S2 must include what S1 said and then add something they did. S2: "Yesterday I went to the park and ate some pizza." S3 must include what S1 and S2 said and the add something else. S3 "Yesterday I went to the park, ate some pizza and went for a swim at the beach."

It gets harder and harder to remember as the chain gets longer.

Enjoy!
