Anyone have any fun ideas for language arts games?

5-6th grade behavior focus classroom
less then 10 players

that are learning nouns, verbs, and other parts of speech.
Other games would be great. Those relating to social skills would be even better!
 
1. Mad Libs - use ones you buy, or create some examples and have students create their own (they have to identify the part of speech that their classmates have to brainstorm)
2. Flyswatter game - Write the parts of speech on the board, then have students identify the part of speech of a certain word in a sentence you read by hitting their flyswatter on the correct word on the board. Whoever gets it right stays up while whoever gets it wrong (or last) gives their flyswatter to another student).
3. Another possibility is to have students complete normal worksheets on the topic, but to work in small groups, and for each to have a role to play (Reader, Recorder, etc.) to complete the worksheet. You can make it a contest between the groups to see who gets the most correct.
