We are going to create a series of printable board games for a variety of topics that our fellow EFL and ESL teachers are welcome to use for their English classes too. All these games will have the same rules which go like this:

1. Players roll the dice to see who goes first. The player who rolls the largest number goes first.
2. Players roll the dice once on each turn and cover a space accordingly with the correct body part card. Skip spaces that are already covered.
3. The player who covers a space with a wrong vocabulary card must skip his/her next turn.
4. When players reach the last space, they resume the game from the start until all spaces are covered with vocabulary cards.
5. The player who covers the last uncovered space wins.

Here is a list of the board games that our small team of two EFL teachers has already created and published on this blog:

• Irregular verbs game
• Alphabet game
• Phonics game
• Parts of the body game
