AN ACTIVITY I THINK MIGHT WORK I’ve Never … • Level: Intermediate-advanced • Grammar: Present perfect and simple past • Directions: First, do a model round. Instead of using alcohol, you can use pennies to make this one fun. Start out by telling the class something you've never done. For example, "I've never been to India. " Anyone who has been to India must tell the story. After they tell the story and their classmates ask follow-up questions, they receive a penny. Play continues to the right as the next person says, "I've never. . . " Again, students who have done this receive a penny. Once the students have gotten the idea, put them in groups to continue the activity (you could continue to play as a whole class, but there's more time for language production if they're in groups).
