This is a game designed for students learning Chinese (Mandarin). Students will stand in a circle (can be done standing around the outside of the classroom). Excel Spreadsheet is projected onto the board. One student is chosen to start, working clockwise, each student takes turns saying the word shown on the board. If the English is shown, the student must say the Chinese. If the Chinese is shown, the student must say both the English and the Chinese. If the student is correct, they stay in the game and await their next turn. If they are wrong, they sit down. When the next incorrect answer is given, the students who are already "out" have the opportunity to stand back up and re-enter the game by answering the word correctly.
