ESL Classroom Activity - Fun English Games Tic Tac Toe

If you're looking for an easy activity to finish the last few minutes of an ESL class while reinforcing some of the things the students learnt then give this fun tic tac toe game a try.

Draw a large noughts & crosses table on the whiteboard/blackboard and explain to the students that they will be playing you, the teacher, in a classic game of noughts and crosses.

The difference with this version of tic tac toe is that there isn't alternative turns, you will instead be asking the students questions relevant to what they have been learning, if they answer correctly then they can draw a 'O' but if they are wrong then you can draw an 'X'.

Ask a range of students questions until either they or you have a line of three consecutive O's or X's. It's a simple activity but a fun way to finish the class, especially if the students win.
