Instructions for teachers

The game is usually played with the worksheet cut up into cards, but is also possible with students just crossing words off the worksheet. If the cards are cut up, each group of two to four students should spread them across the table. The game can be played with the cards face up or face down. One student chooses two cards and asks one person in their group “Do you like…?” questions about both. If you give them the cards without plural -s, insist that they add it when they make the questions.

If they get the same answer about both (in other words “No, I don’t” x 2 or “Yes, I do” x 2), they get two points and can keep those two cards. If they get different answers (i.e. one “Yes, I do” and one “No, I don’t”), they don’t get any points and have to put the cards back in (exactly) the same places. If students ask, tell them that “Do you like…?” doesn’t mean “Do you like eating...?”

If the game gets too easy and/ or they finish the whole pack and you want to extend the game, you can get them to ask third person questions like “Does your sister like…?” and “Does your English teacher like…?” With this variation, two “I don’t know” answers also count as two points (as well as the usual two yes answers or two no answers). If they don’t have any ideas for who to ask about, you can give them a copy of the list of suggested people below.
