English Games: Treasure Hunt





Another game that I can give you is called Treasure Hunt. Although I use this game for personal letter, you can adapt it to any other material. Feel free to copy it. 


Treasure Hunt: Personal Letter

1.      Preparation stage:
a.       Copy these sheets enough for 4-6 groups of students.
b.      Cut the letters in each box and then mix up all of them. So, there will be 4-6 sets for 4-6 groups. Each set contains 5 jumbled letters
c.       Prepare 4-6 small boxes to put the jumbled letters (you may just put them on the floor but be careful so that they won’t mix up with other groups’).
d.      Prepare also 5 pieces of blank paper for each group and glue/adhesive tape to stick the arranged letters.
2.      How to play
a.       Divide students into some groups.
b.      Each group will have a set of jumbled letters in a small box. But, the boxes should be placed in front of the class.
c.       Divide the members in each group into two categories of player: The Runner and The Executor.
d.      The runners of the groups have to come forward in front of the class one by one. Each time they must dance and clap their hands twice. After they have done dancing and clapping, they are allowed to take 1 piece of paper and give them to the executor.
e.       Ask them to do this until they finish all the papers.
f.       The executors must arrange the papers they get into 5 letters with good arrangement and stick them in the available papers.
g.       The runner CAN NOT help the executors to arrange.
h.      The first group to finish the arrangement correctly is the winner.


NOTE:
·         You can adjust or change or modify the rules according to your needs and class.
·         THE REAL RULES: Teacher should copy each letter on papers with different colors, cut them, and then spread the papers all over the classroom. All members have to hunt them down to arrange the letters.
·         ANOTHER VARIATION: Teacher can mix up the contents in a box with other boxes. So, if the students can complete the arrangement because they lack of certain parts of the letters, they have to ask to other groups to give them those parts. It will be interesting. But be careful since it can be chaotic.



Dear Mrs. Mary Stephenson,

I am so sorry to hear about your loss of your beloved husband. Mr. Edward Stephenson was a wonderful, caring boss who never yells at his employees. I am sure that he will be dearly missed. My heart goes out to you during this time.


I am sorry that I cannot attend the funeral this Saturday since I have to attend my own relative’s funeral in downtown, but my thoughts and prayers will be with both you and your son, David.


Mrs. Stephenson, I would be glad if I can offer you my assistance for anything you and David need especially regarding the company matters. Moreover, Mr. Stephenson’s lawyer and I will visit you a week after the funeral to talk about the inheritance and some other matters.


With all my heart, I deeply apologize and express my condolences.
 
Sincerely,

Jaclyn Denis




Dear Sonia,

I´ve told you many times that, to me, the worst venom to a relationship is jealousy. When it´s sick. Then it´s fatal. Every time I told you that you pretended to agree, shook your head timidly and promised to change. And that wasn´t what happened, and never did happen.


Each day, each hour, each minute, you suffocate me more, trying to take away my liberty; control my attitudes, my agenda; my friends, you are trying to isolate me as a person But yesterday was the end of it: make that huge fight just because I called my sister sweetie, was the worst.


So, for the good of us all, it´s best if we put an end to this story: I´ll be free to follow my path. FREE, understand? And you will be free to be jealous of me because from this moment on we will have nothing special that brings us together, I´m not your boyfriend anymore.
 
Goodbye

Leon





Dear Mr. Indra Wibawa,

You don´t know how painful it is for me to write this letter. I´m saying painful so that I don´t have to say revolting, because you have total conscience-i know that- of how much I was and am working hard so that the project will work out. What I mean is that I´m doing my part, but, you treat “our” (is it?) project as if it was a game. You´ve limited yourself to chipping in with a little change, always late, and you´re not interested in understanding correctly the business you’re in.


I´m not here begging for your investment, because in every serious business there must be a serious investment. I´m not begging because I recognize the value of my work and in the product we have to offer; and I can say out loud we aren´t selling any product or trafficking any drug. We have a good product, which soon, will be well known all over the world.


Anyway, knowing you´re not interested, I believe, that beyond this point, I should treat you like Mr. or Dr. “Opportunist” that viewed the project as a chance to make a quick fortune and in the moment you realized the fortune would take a little longer, you regretted you got into the business and started to treat the issue with irresponsibility.


Lastly, even though I´m very upset with the situation, I want to tell you the project will continue, with or without you, and will be great, because it´s a good project and counts on the participation of talented and dedicated people who want to work. So, if perhaps you want to continue a part of this group change positively your attitude or you will or you will have regrets again in a short period of time!

Sincerely,

Linda Setiabudi






Dear Sinta,

Today is your birthday, reason of happiness for me, because today I remember someone I can trust and to whom I can devote my love and my affection to.


For some people, the passage of time seems cruel, but when a friend's birthday comes along, we only think to thank God for the privilege of sharing such precious company in the previous year.
Moreover, we cannot forget to ask that this date is repeated indefinitely, for many years to come.
Isn’t the completion of another birthday cause for celebration on merit, because in this case it is the merit of nature, is it not? However, people like you deserve to be honored by completing another year of life, simply because you are able to bring happiness to your fellows.


That's why I say, with all sincerity and with love: Happy Birthday! May your life be always full of joy!


Big hug,

Cindy.

My dear, Fella!

Good morning my love. Know that there is nothing better than waking up with you in mind, even after having spent the night thinking about you.


When I think or dream about you the best thoughts just come to my mind. I hope today you've woken up in a good mood, happy, and able to present yourself to the world with your bright eyes and with your most beautiful clothes to bring more beauty to this little planet of ours.


You have the gift to bring me hope in any situation, from the time you wake up and let me tell you good morning to the moment when we go to sleep and I wish you good night and sweet dreams.


You have the talent to transform anything into something more beautiful than the moment when it was created, as you add warmth and joy to our world. Without you, life would be sadder and the days would be darker. I hope you have woken up feeling quite cheerful and able to transfer all your joy to all who cross your path (include me in that list, too).


My wish is that we are always happy!

Kisses from your biggest fan,

Delon
