It is played in two groups of 7-8 students with a set of irregular verb cards for every group. The groups can switch the sets of cards when they finish playing to practice other irregular verbs.

The other cards are put on the desk in a pack. The game can be played clockwise or counter clockwise. Any students can start the game by putting on the desk one card with a verb in the first form. Make sure the students do not play in silence. They should pronounce the verb form to practice pronunciation. 2. The other students check their cards and if they have verb forms of the same verb, they should put them on the desk next to the first one in the correct order. For example, student 1: speak, students 2: spoke, students 3: spoken. If there all the three verb forms are on the desk in the correct order, these cards are no longer in the game and students should take from the pack other cards so that there would be six cards for every student again. 3. If one of the forms (the second or the third) is still in the stack and can’t be put next to the first form, the cards return back to their owners and the game goes on until the students can put all the three forms in the correct order on the desk. 4. Students continue playing the game until there are no more cards left in the pack. The winner is the student who has no more cards to play with.

For the second form – Past Simple: HE SPOKE TO THE PRESIDENT YESTERDAY. For the third form – Present Perfect: He has already spoken to everyone in this room. How to make Grammar Poker Cards 1.
