Introducing a wonderful tool for classroom brain breaks!
Here are a few ways to use it in your lessons:
- Brain Breaks (Physical Activity): The teacher or a student rolls the die. Everyone reads the command out loud together and performs the movement.
- Reviewing Numbers and Verbs: Have the student name the verb before doing the action, and then count in English while performing it.
- Grammar Practice (Present Continuous): One student secretly rolls the die and starts performing the action. The rest of the class tries to guess what they are doing by asking questions or making statements like, "Are you jumping?" or "You are spinning!"
- "Your Choice" Sector: A great way to let their imagination run wild. The student gets to come up with their own action in English for the whole class to do.

It is a fantastic tool for breaking the language barrier, encouraging children to actively use synonyms, clothing categories, styles, and descriptive sentences.
The player must explain the clothing item, accessory, or footwear shown at the top of the card to the class or their team. The main challenge is that they cannot use the taboo words listed right below it! For example, when explaining shoes, you cannot say: feet, walk, leather, heel, pair.
What skills do we practice?
- Spontaneous speaking skills: Students learn to bypass specific garments and explain clothing items through functions, materials, or visual descriptions.
- Vocabulary: Clothing types (outerwear, footwear, accessories), materials (leather, fur, wool), dress codes/seasons (winter, formal, casual), and body parts (waist, eyes, ears).
- Grammar: Descriptive structures like "It is a thing which you wear on...", "It is made of...", "You put it on when it's cold...", and "It keeps your... warm".
