Before class, copy one set of action cards and a set of frequency cards for each group of
three.
Procedure
Give each group a set of action cards and a set of frequency cards.
Students deal out the frequency cards and place the action cards face down in a pile.
The first player takes an action card and asks the other players a question beginning with
'How often do you...?'
The player uses the cue on the action card to complete the question, e.g. How often do you
lose something?
The other players each reply, producing a frequency card, e.g. hardly ever. They must try to
choose a frequency card, which is as close to the truth as possible.
The first player then decides whose version is nearest to the truth and gives the action card
to that player.
That player lays down the action card and their frequency card.
The player to get rid of all their frequency cards first is the winner.
