Instructions:

  • Each player takes a turn to throw the die and moveshis/her counter the number of spaces shown on the dice.
  • The player then asks the other player the question indicated by the word they have landed on. For example, if player lands on ‘surname’ he/she asks the other player ‘What’s your surname?’ and the other player answers the question.

Age: How old are you?

Nationality: What’s your nationality?

Surname: What’s your surname?

  • Then player 2 throws the dice and so on. The first player to reach ‘FINISH’ is the winner.

Note:

Playing board games may be a new concept to the learner. You may need to very carefully explain and model how to play the game. It would be helpful to have a list of questions written out because forming questions is a difficult task in itself.
