Relative Clause Card Game
Designed by Cam Lirette, these cards can be used to supplement relative clause lesson plans and worksheets.
There is a lot of vocabulary and the job flashcards are not the usual ones that elementary school
students learn. In fact, these cards are meant for students in middle school to university.
Print two copies of the cards and paste on posterboard to
make a deck of cards to play Go Fish, review the vocabulary, or play Memory.
Go Fish:
Students each get 2 or 3 cards dealt to them. Going clockwise students try to match up their
cards by asking other students if they have a matching card.
Each job has two cards in the form of relative clauses that describe the job. Students have to match the
two descriptions. The conversation should go something like this:
S1: Do you know somebody who digs for coal?
S2: Do you mean a miner?
S1: Yes, I do.
S2: No, I'm sorry. Go fish.
or
Yes, Here it is.
