The Matching Circle is a matching circle for English lessons in which children match English words related to breakfast such as bread, honey or orange juice with the corresponding picture and a short English description, and arrange them in a circle. The descriptions are short riddles written in the first person, such as “I am a sweet spread made from fruit.” for jam.
