  Name Memorizing Game Skills:vocabulary, writing Level : Intermediate (group game) Have children sit in the circle. Start by saying “My name is…” and then answer a question about yourself. For example “My name is Dan and I like purple”. The next person says “ This is Dan and he likes the color purple and my name is Olya and I am 10 years old”. The next person says “ That is Dan, he likes purple , this is Olya and she is 10 and I am Pavlo and I like football”. It’s a chain and the kids have to repeat what the last people have said about themselves. It’s really hard to be the last person in the circle!
