Opposite Pair Activity!

Here is something that all children love to participate. A good game with a purpose! Learning is fun when it is done through exploring various possibilities and arriving at an understanding and conclusion. It is more effective with a challenging game which results in achieving the goal i.e. winning the game as well as learning.
The children were all bubbling with enthusiasm when the game was introduced to them. Each child was given a flash card with the instruction that they shouldn’t reveal the flash card to one another. Then, the children were informed that each flash card has a word which has an opposite pair. They need to find the opposite pair of their flash card from any one among them. The first pair of students with opposites will be the winner. The children bounded around the class with great fervor searching for their opposite pair.
They all were very quick to identify the opposite of the words given to them. But since it was a game, the first to identify their opposite pair were the winners. Those who didn’t become first were all the more excited to be first the next time.
All in all it was an interesting way to ensure that the children were able to understand
