Clothes / Clothing: Matching Circle for English Class

T-shirt, jumper or winter jacket – which picture and which description belong to which word? In the Clothes Laying Circle for English in Primary School, children match the appropriate cards to form sets. Bit by bit, a colorful circle forms around the center. Because there is a version with short English descriptions and one with only a word and picture, you can make the task easier or more challenging. The children can work alone, in pairs, or in small groups.

This is included:

• Laying circle with word, picture, and description
• Laying circle with word and picture
• Center pieces for both circles

This also includes a short set of instructions.

Possible uses in English lessons

The cards can be laid out randomly on the floor or on a large table until the children match them to form sets. At the end, you can discuss the completed circle together. The circle can also be used well at a station or in a support lesson.
