50 cards of various characters and symbols in Homer’s Odyssey. You can also print these and use for classroom display purposes too. 5 scorecards featuring characters and symbols from the card pack. Scorecards are varied and pictures placed at random. A fun group revision activity for students. A student shuffles, selects a card and calls out the name on the card. Students then have to mark off or place a counter over the picture (if they have it) on their scorecard. The first group to mark off at least two full columns or rows wins. (This can be adjusted to suit.) As an extension activity students then complete the theme worksheet for each character / symbol in one of the rows they have marked off.
