Noun Types - Snap! Card Game - 126 cards for 2 players (4 noun types)

Noun Type Snap!

We developed this game of Snap! for our children to play against one another using the four noun types. We found that our children needed some form of "fun" activity to challenge them into learning the four noun types. This game includes lots of examples of each of the four nouns:

• Proper
• Pronoun
• Possessive
• Noun

This game encourages just that. By playing the game, the children are continuously looking at the words, and linking them to one another and to their collective terms.

The game is simple. Purchase, download, print, laminate and cut up the 126 word cards and sort into the two coloured piles. One pile is made up of noun words (yellow), the second pile is made up of noun form cards (green).

As the children lay down their cards one at a time, one after each other, they must watch to see if the yellow noun word card matches the noun form on the green classification card. The first person to spot the match shouts "Snap!" and wins the cards. The winning player is the first person to win all of the cards. As the game continues, the cards will start to get muddled and the game becomes more and more complex - ensuring the children have to really focus on the cards and the categories.

Our children love this game, and it has enabled them to embed the knowledge of nouns, and their spellings into their writing. If you are in a UK school this has also supported preparation for the SPAG assessment in Y6.

We hope that you enjoy this resource. It has a wealth of additional features beyond playing Snap!

• Provides a valuable activity for Literacy Centers.
• The cards can also be used as class based flash cards to ensure that the children can quickly name and recall the noun category the word belongs to.
• The set can also be used to play dominoes - linking the words to their categories.
