    Card games

    Task 1: A description of card games.

    A) Read ‘Snap basics’. What do these numbers refer to?

    one ____you need one deck of cards________________

    two __________________________________________

    four __________________________________________

    five __________________________________________

    Snap basics:

    The game: Snap is a game for up to five players. You need one deck of cards to play. Players
    have to pay attention and shout ‘Snap!’ when they see two cards with the same number or
    picture. The winner is the player with all the cards at the end of the game. This game is very
    noisy and very fast!

    The cards: There are four suits: hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs. The highest cards are
    aces, then Kings, Queens, Jacks, 10s and so on down to 3s and 2s.

    B) Read ‘Snap instructions’. Why is the game noisy?

    Snap instructions:

    1 Shuffle the cards.

    2 One person deals each player an approximately equal number of cards, clockwise, one at a time
    and face down. Use all the cards in the deck.

    3 Each player puts their pile of cards face down in front of them. Players must not look at their
    cards.

    4 The player on the left of the dealer goes first. He or she places the top card from their pile face
    up in the centre of the table and says the name of the card, for example, ‘The three of diamonds.’

    5 The next player places the top card from their pile face up on top of the previous cards and says
    the name of the card, for example, ‘The Jack of clubs’.

    6 The game continues in the same way in a clockwise direction until a card number or picture is
    repeated. If a player places a card on the pile that has the same number or picture as the previous
    card, any player can shout ‘Snap!’, and quickly put his or her hand on the pile and take the cards.
    This is the noisy part!

    7 If two or more people shout ‘Snap!’ at the same time, the person with their hand on the cards
    first wins the cards. This person adds the cards to their pile and the game continues.

    8 When a player uses all the cards in their pile, they are out. The player with all the cards at the
    end of the game is the winner. Play again?

    Task 2: Vocabulary, play and write.

    A) Look at the words and expression in italics in the instructions. Can you write them next
    to the correct definition?
