Tell the students that they are going to play a game where they match verbs and other
words in this way.
Ask the students to work in groups of three or four. Give one game board and one set of
cards, counters and dice to each group.
Before the students start playing the game, demonstrate how to play using the
instructions written on the board game.
Now the students are ready to play the game. While they are playing, go round to each
group and check they are playing correctly.
If appropriate, players can use two of their cards to make a longer sentence, e.g. They
work in an office in New York. If the group thinks it is correct, the player puts their card(s)
to the bottom of the pile on the table and it is the next player’s turn to play.
If the sentence is not correct, the player may not put their card to the bottom of the pile,
but must keep it. If a player hasn’t got a word card that goes with the verb, they pick up a
card from the top of the pile and match it with the verb if possible.
