Falling Down (game #ICT5)
Play the game to review the vocabulary: pupils, friends, boy, girl, teacher,

dog, pink, purple
Divide the class into two teams. Have a pupil come to the front of the classroom
to play.

pupil from the other team can take a turn. When that pupil answers incorrectly,
choose a different pupil from the first team to take a turn.
