Preparation:Print out the A4 sheets.If possible, laminate the game board after you have joined the two halves together. Cover the synonymspage with ‘clear pvc self adhesive book cover film’ and then cut out the squares to make SynonymCards.
HOW TO PLAY:You need four players, one game board and two sets of cards (different colour borders).Players work with a partner to make a team of two.Shuffle your team cards and place them in a pile facing down. Take turns to turn over your top card anddecide where to put it on the board. Everyone has to agree that the card fits the picture.The team with the first four cards in a line either vertically, horizontally or diagonally wins.
