To finish
The chain game:

using comparatives.

Slide 11 - Slide

 All you need for this game is a timer. To begin, brainstorm some comparative adjectives and write them on the board. Then choose a topic that has many nouns, such as ‘animals’. Then write a comparative sentence on the board comparing two animals. For example, ‘Elephants are bigger than cats.’.
Now the game can begin. The aim of the game is to make as many ‘comparative chains’ as possible. To make a chain, students must make a comparative sentence starting with the last noun of the previous sentence.
So, for example, if the first sentence is ‘Elephants are bigger than cats.’, then the next sentence must start with ‘Cats‘ (e.g. ‘Cat’s are smarter than pigs.’), and the sentence must start with ‘Pigs‘ (e.g. ‘Pigs are fatter than dogs.’), and so on. Give the first team 1 or 2 minutes to make as many comparative chains as possible, and then change the topic (e.g. food) for the next team.
