1 I am is a matching game where students read out the characteristics of a person, place, or event and is matched with another student. I am is a review game where students get an opportunity to speak, listen, and read at the same time they develop their vocabulary of the discipline. Why? How? What? The I am is broken down into different series. On the template, all four cards per page are matched. Run off the cards front to back so that the picture on the front corresponds with the name on the back. Separate and organize the cards. Have students stand in a circle. Distribute one card to each student. Depending on the size of the class, you will have left-over cards that can be placed on a table in the middle of the room, spread out. If a matching card is not with a student, then you can have a student go to the table to find the match. (Or a student who knows what the match is) Have one student read the bottom portion on the back side of the card out loud. As an alternative, have the student read one bullet at a time and pause to give the match a chance to identify him/herself. After the student has finished reading, the student with the match must come forward. Allocate sufficient time for the match to come forward. If no match is found, the person to the left of the reader must guess on who it is. If the person on the left cannot correctly guess then it passes on to the next person on the left and continues until the match is correctly identified. If the match is in the circle, then have the match what is on the bottom of his/her card and the game continues. If the match is on the Desk Pile, then the original reader finds that card and reads what is on the back of the match and the game continues. When? This is a good strategy when examining/reviewing vocabulary at the end of a unit of study or for a semester/full-year review. Page I- 3
