DESCRIPTION

This is a cool game for teenagers and young adults. I got the sentences with real mistakes made by several students of mine. Teacher, you can make your own presentation with your students' common mistakes. The game: distribute a certain amount of fake money to each student (if you don't have fake money, simply determine how much each one has and keep their balance on the board). As in an auction, students must offer how much they would like to pay for the given sentence. The best offer gets the sentence and the chance to correct it. If the sentence is corrected accordingly, the player gets some bonus "cash" (20% of the amount payed, for example). Students usually bet higher for the sentences they are sure they can edit correctly.
