Introduction

In this game called “Hobby Mystery”, students take on the role of sound detectives, who listen to different sounds related to hobbies, act out their guesses and discuss their answers. “Hobby Mystery” utilizes elements from Total physical response (TPR) but instead of verbal commands, sounds guide the movements, thus allowing for more creative responses. The goal is to engage the students in practicing and expanding their vocabulary.
