This time we were requested to complete a template about a Game-based learning lesson plan. 

​

As I love playing board games and card games, I was struggling with which one I should pick for my GBL, but I opted to go on a simple but fun one: Battleship.

I tried this one when I was teaching English to teenagers a couple of years ago and went pretty well. 

​

Divided into pairs or teams, they have to draw two 10x10 grids: one for their own words and another for their opponents. In their own grid, they will place 5 different words related to means of transport, one word in each cell, as the ships in the actual game.

​

Then, they will take turns to guess their opponent's words, saying coordinates. Whenever they get the full words, in order to obtain the point, they will have to make a sentence using it. The first team to get their opponent's 5 words wins.
