Cardgame:Pickup samesounds
Photocopy and cut out cards from all minimal pairs in Units B-13.
Shuffle the cards and deal them face down all over the table.
Turn over any two cards and read their sentences aloud. If they are the
same vowel sound you keep them and you continue playing.
If those two cards aren't the same vowel sound, turn them face down again
and the next person plays.
Collect as many same sound pairs as you can in a time limit, e.g. ten
minutes.
