About this activity

What your child practises

Skills: Word cards: animals and Word cards: colours.

Learning and recalling new words in another language, with meaning and spelling.

What’s included

  • 12 cards
  • An on-screen version with instant marking and stars

Age and school year

Made for ages 4–18.

How to use it

  • Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
  • Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
  • Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Little and often wins: five minutes a day beats one long session a week.
  2. Do it on screen first for instant marking, then print it a few days later to see what was remembered.
  3. Pick a regular time – after a snack, say – so practice becomes a habit rather than a battle.
