Acting out
In this fun miming game, students review some commonly used phrasal verbs.

Before class, make one copy of the cards.

Procedure

Divide the class into two teams (A and B).

Ask a player from Team A to come to the front of the class, pick a card and mime the
situation.

Before the players begin their mimes, they must read out the first sentence on the card,
which tells the teams what information they are looking for.

Students from both teams then try to guess what is being mimed.

The first student to guess correctly scores a point for their team.

A player from Team B then comes up, picks a card and does a mime, and so on.

The game continues until all of the cards have been used.

Note: Some of the mimes are for two people. When two people are needed, it is indicated on
the card.
