Pelmanism is easy to adapt for online classes. Make sure that the cards are mixed up on the worksheet (as unfortunately mine are usually not), change the text in the cards to white, then get students to change it to black every time they choose a card (in an editable format such as Word, as it won’t work with a PDF). If you want to score, they can then change it to a different colour if they match successfully (e.g. red for one player and blue for the other). The same could also work for Snap, as long as they remember which two cards they changed to black most recently, but it’s a lot more fun with real bits of paper.
