‘Who Am I?’ Oral Language game for 1 st – 4 th class – Teacher Guide Notes Preparation: Print and laminate the photograph cards attached Play Instructions: Split the class/group into two teams. One child (the ‘Caller’) from Team 1 stands up ready to play first. He/She turns over the top photograph from the pile (without letting anyone else see it) and tries to make a member of Team 1 say the name of the person in the photograph, by describing the person but without saying any part of the person’s name or the three other words below the name. Then the caller moves on to the photograph on the next card. The caller has 20 seconds to work through as many photograph cards as possible. Any photograph cards that are correctly identified by Team 1 within 20 seconds are awarded to the team. Now a caller from Team 2 stands up and the play continues as before, with the caller again attempting to work through as many photographs as possible within the 20 second time limit. After the 20 seconds the play returns to Team 1 with a different caller from that team taking over. The play continues back and forth between the two teams until all of the photograph cards have been won. The team with the most photograph cards at the end of the game are the winners. Tip: If a caller is struggling to describe a person feed him/her prompt questions using the ‘W’ question words e.g. What gender is the person? Where does the person live? Who might the person be seen with? Why is the person known? When was the person born approximately? etc. AUTHOR | Ann Moran Elsa Don’t say: Frozen or Anna or Sisters!

Then the caller moves on to the photograph on the next card. The caller has 20 seconds to work through as many photograph cards as possible. Any photograph cards that are correctly identified by Team 1 within 20 seconds are awarded to the team. Now a caller from Team 2 stands up and the play continues as before, with the caller again attempting to work through as many photographs as possible within the 20 second time limit.
