Simple but challenging game to practice second conditional.

Put the students in groups of 3/4, print off and cut up one set of picture cards per group.

Students place the cards face down in a pile. When ready, the first student turns over a card and the students race to make a second conditional sentence using the pictures that they see. This can either be each student giving one answer, students coming up with an answer together, or as a competition where the first person to come up with a correct sentence gets one point.

Encourage them to use their imagination. They may ask you to judge if their sentences are correct.
