Annotation: Different methods can be used in teaching English: games, brainstorming, 
dialogues and so on. Methods based in games are effective to any age group. In this article, I am 
writing about two game-methods, which help pupils to make longer sentences in short time. Using 
these game-methods, teachers of English can make their lessons more effective and more funny. 
Key words: pedagogical problem, sentence, game, method, group, logical, grammatical, 
pupils.
One of the pedagogical problems in teaching English is how to teach pupils to make longer 
sentences. In order to overcome this problem I suggest game methods, which will help pupils 
make sentences easily and with fun. In this article, I am writing about three game-methods. 
These methods can be used to pupils of pre-intermediate or intermediate levels. 
The first game is named as “If I were”. The teacher begins this game with explaining the 
rules and situation. Firstly, about the rules. The class is divided into two groups. Both groups 
should work as a single team in making sentences. When the teacher explains the situation, one 
of the groups begins the game by making one part of the sentence. The sentence should be of 
conditional two (unreal conditional). The second group continues the sentence by making both 
logically and grammatically correct ending. In turn, the first group should continue making 
another sentence, which should logically continue the second groups ending. Then, second group 
makes ending to the second sentence. Thus, game continues until one of the groups can’t make 
sentences correctly or the teacher can stop the game due to time requirements. Before beginning 
the game, the teacher must explain the situation. For example, a pupil wants to do his or her 
lessons but doesn’t have enough knowledge on the topic. The teacher lets the first group begin 
the game by making the first sentence. Here an example of the games.
