Title: Sumo
Type: Active Game
Target: Any vocabulary
Materials: flashcards
Procedure: 2 students come up to the front of the class. Pin a card on their back
so they can’t see it. Don’t let the other person see either. The 2 students face
each other and do the Sumo pose. Put their hands behind their back and readyset-
go and then they try to see the other persons’ card without using hands. Once
they’ve seen it they yell out the answer. The first to get it right is the winning
sumo wrestler.
Comments: This game is very popular with boys, but some girls don’t like to
participate. This can be helped if you pair girls with another girl.
