Revolving around Celebrities, this set of Taboo Cards requires pupils to work in groups of 3 or more. Naturally, mimes and gestures are not allowed as communicative 'props' as pupils describe the celebrity on their card.

In that regard, the cards are numbered to facilitate communication between the teacher and the student. As always, the worksheet is fully editable.
