The PowerPoint presentation
Past simple games are undeniably engaging and the PowerPoint presentation is surely a great asset. It will provide you with the visuals and audio prompts for all the questions. Another key point is that it also includes the instructions to use in the classroom before you start the game. Using a PowerPoint presentation makes it all much more appealing.
The printable documents
Besides the instructions, the printable lifeline-cards and the printable answer-cards, there is a printable worksheet to use during the game if you wish your students to write the answers themselves and a 2-page printable worksheet to use after the game, to check if the students learned what was tested during the game.
