Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Practise comparatives for two things: adding -er, changing y to i, doubling the last consonant, more with long words, and the irregular good to better, so pupils can compare things around them (ต 1.2 ป.5/1).

What's in the worksheet

6 multiple-choice comparative gap fills - A cat is ___ than an elephant. (smaller) - This box is ___ than that one. (heavier) - My bag is ___ than yours. options more big / biger / bigger - This film is ___ than that one. (more interesting) - Today is ___ than yesterday. options best / gooder / better

How to use it in class

Use after teaching the -er spelling rules, 5 minutes in solo mode, then have pupils compare two objects in the room. - Put the four rules on the board and ask which rule each question uses - If bigger goes wrong for many, write big, hot and thin and let pupils add -er on the board Play it linked to a class and the results go into the mark book.

Common sticking points

- My bag is ___: choosing biger because they forget to double the g; show the one-vowel, one-final-consonant pattern - Today is ___: picking best because it is familiar, without noticing than; than always calls for the comparative - heavier: some may hesitate over the spelling; point out the y turning into i
