Give each group the chance to score two points.
We’ll play the game again, but this time you have to
remember which day you are and also which time of day
you are. Give each group either a ‘morning’ card, an
‘afternoon’ card or a ‘night’ card (word and picture). Say,
for example: You are a morning group. At this point, more
than one group may put their hands up so you need to give
another clue. You are a morning group and the day after
Saturday. At this point, only one group will fit both clues.
Repeat several times so that each group has an opportunity
