Slap
Divide the class into pairs. Give each pair a set of the student picture cards and place them face up on the desk.
Call out a word, e.g., pen. The first child in each group who slaps the correct card and says the word takes it.
Repeat with a different word.
Continue calling out the words in a random order until you have said each of the four words three times.
The child in each pair holding the most cards is the winner.
If a number of groups have a tie, play again.

Divide the class into small groups.
One child from each group takes a vocabulary card and reads and mimes the word to the rest of their group.
The group responds by saying the word.
Groups score one point for each word they guess.
Consolidation
Feely Bag

Put some school objects in a bag. Children sit in a circle. Play some music and ask children to pass the bag from
one child to the next around the circle.
Stop the music suddenly. The child who has the bag when the music stops feels an object in the bag and says
It’s a pen / pencil / eraser / book. Then the child pulls the object out of the bag to see if he/she was correct.
Play the music and continue in this way until several children have had a turn.
Note: If you put a pencil in the bag, make sure the tip of it is not sharp.
