J’ai…Qui a… French Antonyms Activity Set 3 - I have…Who has

This game includes 53 cards. Depending on class size you can give each student more than one card or have them play in small groups. I recommend printing out and laminating these cards if possible so that you can use them over and over again.

How it works: Once each student has a card (or cards), the one who has the card that says Je commence le jeu begins the activity. He says, for example, Je commence le jeu. Qui a un antonyme pour calme? The person who has the card with J’ai bruyant on it says, J’ai bruyant. Qui a un antonyme pour gracieux? And so the game goes on until the last card is called and that student’s card will say, J’ai _____. Le jeu est terminé!

Another idea is to prepare two sets of cards, divide your class into two groups and let each group have a go to see which team can get through the entire deck of cards the fastest. It’s a very engaging and fun activity!
