Ideas for using the opposites flashcards
Besides your own favourite flashcard activities, here are a few more ideas that you may find useful!
- Matching race – Cut out several sets of the flashcards and shuffle each set. With students in small teams or pairs make it a race to see which team can correctly match all the opposites first.
- Opposite slap the board – First, stick 5 or more cards on the board with magnets. Then ask 2 students to come to the front of the class. After the count of 3 either hold up a card or say a word and the students must race to touch/slap the corresponding opposite.
- Make a sentence/question – Show a student one of the cards and ask them to make a sentence or question using the opposite word.
- Reading line – Make a line of the opposites flashcards on the floor, 1 card a small step apart. Students must say the opposite of the word on the floor each step they take forward. You can have 2 students, one on each side of the line and make it a race.
- Opposites charades – Ask one student to the front of the class and show them one of the flashcards. Their task is to act the word while the rest of the class tries to guess it and name its opposite.
