The fruit and vegetable small cards are easy to carry and store, making them convenient on-the-go teaching. You might have seen on the blog that these cards can be used for a wide range of activities such as, group work, pair work, individual practice.

Small cards encourage interactive learning. Play Guess the Card:

One student picks a card without pointing at it, and describes the fruit or vegetable for the players to guess.

Players: Is it yellow?

Student: NO!

Players: Is it a fruit or vegetable?

Student: a vegetable.

Players: Is it green?

Student: No!

Players: Is it a carrot?

Student: Yes, it is!

Small cards can be used for different skill levels by adjusting the activities. Students can just write the word for beginners or write more complex sentence building for advanced students). 

Small cards allow students to practice independently by writing the words on a small board.

Play Circle the other words within a fruit and vegetable word. There are several. Students write the word on the card and then find the other word such as this example: pear, there is the word ear.

Give each student a "bingo" board with spaces to write any of the fruit and vegetables. The teacher calls out the fruit and vegetables using the small cards, and students crosses out the words they hear.

Matching Pairs with Flashcards. Use the small cards and larger flashcards together. Students match the small cards to the corresponding large flashcards as quickly as possible.
