Choose a card from below in the way that your teacher tells you to (e.g. your own choice or picking at random). Mime successfully doing or not successfully trying to do that thing until your partner guesses the whole sentence that is on the card, e.g. miming crashing a car until your partner guesses “I can’t drive”. You can make sound effects to help, but you can’t say any words. Then take turns doing the same.

| I can drive | I can’t drive |
| I can jump | I can’t jump |
| I can hop | I can’t hop |
| I can ski | I can’t ski |
| I can catch | I can’t catch |
| I can throw | I can’t throw |
| I can punch | I can’t punch |
| I can hit a ball | I can’t hit a ball |
| I can surf | I can’t surf |

| I can bounce a ball | I can’t bounce a ball |
| I can kick a ball | I can’t kick a ball |
| I can head a ball | I can’t head a ball |
| I can dive | I can’t dive |
| I can touch my toes | I can’t touch my toes |
| I can climb | I can’t climb |

| I can ride a horse | I can’t ride a horse |
| I can play tennis | I can’t play tennis |
| I can windsurf | I can’t windsurf |
| I can throw a ball | I can’t throw a ball |
When your teacher stops you, look at all of the cards and ask about any you are not sure about, working together as a class to make suitable mimes each time.
Change groups. Choose one card and compete to make the best mime to match that.
