A1 - Bis English

Bis English - An engaging ESL card game for beginners based on word/image association. Two packs of 60 cards each provide 120 basic English vocabulary words. Whether you are learning English in a class or at home with friends, this is a fun and entertaining way to learn more English vocabulary. Includes a teacher's booklet.

• 132 Cards Total: Divided into two distinct decks.
  • 60 Picture Cards (Red borders/backs).
  • 60 Word Cards (Blue borders/backs).
  • Special Cards: Includes a Joker card (helps you win) and a Surprise card (can make you lose). 
• Vocabulary Topics Covered: Food and drink, clothes, means of transport, animals, household items, and daily activities. 
• Players: Perfect for 2 to 6 players.

1. Setup: Separate the red picture cards and blue word cards. (For a basic game, you can set the Joker and Surprise cards aside). 
2. Deal: Shuffle the blue word cards and deal them out equally to all players. Place the red picture cards face down in a draw pile in the center of the table. 
3. The Reveal: The youngest player starts by turning over the top picture card from the center pile so everyone can see it. 
4. The Match: All players look at their hand of word cards. The player who has the written word that matches the flipped picture must read the word out loud. 
5. Scoring: If correct, that player claims the picture card, pairs it with their word card, and sets the matched pair aside. 
6. Winning: Play continues clockwise. The first player to successfully match and clear all the word cards from their hand wins the game. 

• Memory / Concentration: Lay all 120 cards face down in a grid. Players take turns flipping over one red card and one blue card trying to find a matching pair. 
• Sentence Building: When a player makes a match, they must use that vocabulary word in a complete sentence or describe the picture to practice oral speaking skills.
