Cut out the cards (dominoes) and distribute face down to students in small groups.
Students select 4 cards each.
Once the 1st student plays his/her dominoe, the next students must then try to build on that by joining a dominoe and thus completing a sentence.
If a student cannot go, he/she should pick up a face down dominoe and misses a turn.
The winner is the student who can get get rid of his/her dominoes the fastest by ‘tagging’ them onto the face-up dominoes already put down by the group of the students.
Suggestion;
• Students could try to name the tense in each case and translate into English aloud on putting down his/her card.
