2. The teacher starts off by putting down one card and saying "Look, there's a .... " plus the word on the card e.g. "Look, there's a ghost!"
3. If anyone else has the same card they can shout out "I want to
be a " plus the item and they slap their card down on the pile e.g.
here if they have a ghost card they shout out "I want to be a ghost!"
and slap it down!
4. The quickest kid to do that can then put down another different one
of their cards by saying "Look, there's a .... " plus the name
of the card.
5. Repeat from step 3 until all the cards are gone!
It's basically a game of snap, but using the two different phrases makes it sound * really * impressive! (Especially if you have guests in the classroom!) With shouts of "Look, there's a scarecrow!" "I want to be a scarecrow!" "Look there's a vampire!" etc. etc.
As I say just make sure you shuffle the cards well before hand!
