Go Fish / 7 Families Game - I CAN STATEMENTS - English

Go Fish / 7 Families - This classic card game is fun for students of all ages! Looking for easy prep literacy activities for independent work during differentiated reading instruction? This version of the game is for practicing I CAN + VERB to say you know how to do something and is an excellent resource for ESL. Play this game along with my beginner level Dots & Boxes or intermediate level Dots & Boxes activities to provide differentiation, or save money and buy the bundle!

Each of the 7 "families of cards" begins with one of the following, and verbs in the present tense are used in the I - YOU - HE - SHE - WE - THEY forms:

• I can + verb
• I can't + verb
• Can I + verb

The following verbs are used in this game: SING - SWIM - DRAW - WRITE - DANCE - READ - RUN

Includes:

42 playing cards to print on heavy paper or card stock

How to play

This card game is an excellent way to practice and memorize the verb CAN and the I CAN + VERB construction. It will have your students speaking to each other in English the whole time! They will make affirmative and negative statements about what they can and can't do.

One player distributes five cards to each player (2 to 4 per group). The rest of the cards are placed in a stack in the middle. One player begins the game by asking another player to give him a card. He or she might say, "Do you have I CAN SING?"

The goal is to come up with 7 complete families. The different verbs represent the families. There are 6 cards to a family (I - YOU - HE - SHE - WE - THEY). Students will find it helpful to group together the cards that have the same picture at the top (flower, flip-flops, etc.) If the player doesn't have it, he says "Go fish". If he draws the card that he asked for, he can continue to play and ask someone for another card. Each time a player comes up with all six members of a family, he can make a stack. At the end of the game, the player with the most sets of families wins!
