Game Features

• Instructions PowerPoint designed like a spy computer with added animation and sound effects
• Game materials included in downloadable file
• Play as a reading or a speaking game

How to Play

• Students play this game indvidually and each student gets a card with an image on it.
• Students must keep their card a secret and not show it to anyone.
• When the game starts, students stand up and go around asking other students the target question (if you have one). For example: "Where are you from?" 
• The student they ask answers with a sentence relating to what's on their card. For example: The student has a French flag on their card so they answer, "I'm from France."
• If the student who asked the question has the same card, they become a "team" and try to find their other "team members" together.
• If they don't have the same card, they are not on the same team and look for someone else to ask.
• However, students have to beware! Some students recieved "spy" cards. Meaning, if someone asks them a question, they can answer with any response they want.
• Once students think they've found all members of their team (I usually play with 3 or 4), they go to the teacher.
• The teacher asks them the target question, they answer together, then show their cards.
• If all cards are the same, they win! However, if there is a spy on their team, the spy wins!

Variations

• The instructions above are for the speaking version of this game. If you want to play as a reading game, have their responses typed out below the pictures on the cards.
• How many spies and number of different cards is up to you and what you feel would work best for your class. My template includes 4 spy cards and 6 different image cards (also 4 of each).
• This game can easily be played without a target question, too. For example, if your lesson is about different ailments, students can go around telling each other what ailment they have on their card like, "I have a headache." or "I have a stomachache." If the student they tell has the same card they can say, "Me too." Or, if they have a different card, they can say, "Feel better!"
