fun card game on rocky shore molluscs for Biology Ecology Field trip. Includes toothed topshells, purple topshells, grey topshells, edible periwinkles, rough periwinkles, dogwhelks, limpets, barnacles, puffins, guillimots, etc Great fun and good for learning species names and identification of species. There is only one symbol that two cards have in common and it’s different for every card pair - can students find it and name it? Cards are distributed between players. One card is placed in the middle. Players hold their cards as a pile with the top card showing symbols. The player who can first find the matching symbol between his top card and the card in the middle calls out that symbol and places his top card in the middle. Now the matching symbol of that card with the players’ top cards has to be found. The player who manages to get rid of all his cards first is the winner. 31 cards with 31 different symbols
