Materials

All you will need is your vocabulary cards and a set of ‘O’ ‘X’ cards. (About 50/50 or 60/40). In this case to follow the weather theme I’m using good and bad weather cards.

Game set up.

Lay your vocabulary cards out on the floor in a circle and go through the words. (For practice, you can count the cards.) Add the ‘O’ ‘X’ weather cards face down. One under each card.

Playing rules.

Move around the circle. When the ‘music’ stops touch a card. Go through the vocabulary and or structures. And have a point for saying the vocabulary. Check the cards beneath to find the winners and losers.  (1 pt for a ‘X’ if you say the sentences. Bonus point for a ‘O’.) Now repeat for the second round and play as many games as time allows.

Variations.

It will work with almost any topic or structure.

Richard’s comments. Flexible game therefore good.
