Games for Learning Sentence Structure

Teacher resource:  A long list of very fun games for learning sentence structure in an ESL classroom. I think my favorite is Minefield:

This is a jumbled sentence game for groups of four. One student is the referee and has a piece of paper with the sentence in the correct order, with one extra space included, representing the 'mine'. The other players play with a piece of paper with numbered blanks and the words mixed up. They take it in turns to nominate words for each blank. Each word correctly placed scores a point for that player and all players write that word in the blank. However, if one player chooses the blank designated as the 'mine', he is immediately blown out of the game!
