re-telling a story listened to

spelling Bees games
verbal Instructions: the teacher or another pupil gives the learner verbal instructions to carry out
Dictation: This must be suitable to the level of the learner
question and answer games
Dialogues
News casting : learners cast news while others listen then the listeners are asked to verbally summarise the news, identify certain words etc
