drawing isn’t enough, draw more or give them other hints such as one or two key words.

Draw things belonging to you and your family and tell your partner about whose they are
and how and when people use them.

Stage 3: Personal pronouns and possessive adjectives mixing up games

Take a cut-up version of one of the pairs of sentences above and mix it up. How quickly
can your partner put the two sentences back into order?

Play the same game, but this time with one of the cards face down. Your partner must put
them in order and say the whole thing without turning that card over. Then turn the card
over to check.

Play the same game with more and more cards face down.
