ACTIVITY SUGGESTION                         
Before giving playing this game, consider distributing all 15 picture cards and 15 matching phrase cards to your students and having them work together as a class to match them, perhaps using tape or magnets to stick them on the board.

Consider also playing the game in groups of four, with two students in two teams.  One student in a team can begin by turning over a picture card, and his/her partner can choose a partitive phrase card (this will reduce the number of cards sets that need to be cut up before the class).  Play then continues with the other team turning over cards.
