Opposites Card Game
A diverse set of cards to help students learn about opposite language.
This teaching resource is a set of cards to help students become familiar with vocabulary and their opposites. Print on card and adhere the backing sheet to create a deck of cards.
Use these cards to help explain opposites with your class to help students exercise their vocabulary skills. They can be used as a simple snap style game where students match opposites in a friendly and competitive situation. Or use as a memory game where students turn over a card at a time and match the opposites. The player with the most sets is the winner.
