Take a Look Inside the Game

Take a look at sample cards from each category and see what your students will be working with in class. Every card is designed to encourage students to speak, think and use English naturally.

Categories

Facts

These cards help students build and reinforce their knowledge of each topic while preparing for their school-leaving exams.

Fun Facts

Surprising and interesting facts that spark curiosity, make students smile and naturally lead to discussions in English.

Speaking

Questions that encourage students to share their opinions, give longer answers and respond spontaneously in English.

Vocabulary

These cards help students expand their topic-related vocabulary and practise using new words in context.

All It Takes Is One Card

Just pick a card and get students talking – naturally, playfully and with no lengthy preparation needed.

How to Play

Maturing can be played in pairs with no preparation needed, or as a board game using the die and game board.

Each card includes both a question and an answer, so students can quiz each other and check their answers straight away. When playing with the board, students roll the die, move around the board and pick a card from one of four categories, depending on the symbol they land on: Facts, Fun Facts, Speaking or Vocabulary.

For even more fun, you can add the bonus Spill or Act cards. These get students moving, create a relaxed atmosphere and encourage spontaneous communication in English.
