Description
Guess who is on your partner's card with this two-person speaking game featuring real photos! Your ESL students will have fun asking and answering questions about physical appearance. They'll practice describing people's eyes and hair, including saying whether hair is long or short, straight or curly. They will also practice naming accessories: earrings, glasses, hat, and headscarf. They'll review grammar as well, including pronoun-antecedent agreement (use of "he" and "she") and question formation in the present simple and present progressive or continuous. My English learners usually have trouble with question word order, so I've supported them by adding these sentence starters on each game board: "Is it...?"; "Does he/she have...?"; and "Is he/she wearing...?" This deck includes approximately 60 cards, each with a different photo. There are ten game boards to simulate the experience of shuffling the cards. Each game board contains a deck of 19 cards to choose from and a separate grid of 19 cards which players can "turn over" by clicking on the images. Each child sets up the game board on their own device to keep their chosen image a secret, creating a natural information gap that fosters authentic communication. The deck also contains a short review of the following vocabulary: blond hair, braids, brown eyes, earrings, glasses, headscarf, long curly hair, and short straight hair. My students have a lot of fun with this game, and I hope yours will too!
