There are several activities to use in the classroom in order to make learning enjoyable and fun. One game I like to use, and I think is suitable for little kids is "Suns and Moons". It is very fun, and the material used is only your voice. The time can vary on how many times you want to do it. The area may be only for fun, but it can be applicable for grammar. The class must be divided in two teams. One team will be the Suns and the other one the Moons. One Sun must have a Moon partner. Both teams will make an Indian line. The partners must sit in the Indian line, but facing each other’s back. When the teacher yells "Suns", both teams must stand up, and the suns must chase their moons partners. When the teacher yells "Moons", both teams must stand up, and the suns must chase their moons partners. The ones caught must make a penitence which can be applicable in grammatical features.
