ESL Measurements Game - Speaking: Forming Sentences, Answering Questions, Freer Practice - Group Work This fun shapes and measurements board game helps students practice using measurement vocabulary, selecting appropriate units, and making simple unit conversions. In groups, players take turns rolling the dice and moving their counter along the board. When a player lands on a Describe, Compare, Fix the Unit, or Convert square, they take a card from the corresponding pile, read it aloud and answer by forming a complete sentence using the correct unit of measurement, e.g. 'It weighs 800 grams.' If the group agrees the answer is correct, the player stays on the square. If not, they move their counter back two squares.
