How to play:
1. Have groups of three to four students play the game.
2. Give each student eight (groups of 3) or six (groups of 4) cards.
3. The one to get the “Starting card” puts his card on the table and reads the word aloud.
4. Option 1 (elementary): The student with the card that has the matching verb form puts it down
on the table (like in a Domino game).
Option 2 (pre-intermediate): The students have to make a sentence in the Past simple with the
word.
Option 3 (intermediate): The students must do Option 1 + make a coherent story! It means that
students have think carefully and, if necessary, add one or two sentences to link the previous
“domino” sentence to the next.
5. And so it goes...

PS: Notice that the Starting card has the verb form matching the last card to be placed on the table.
