Next, tell the students to separate the cards back into two sets.
Time
30 minutes One student takes the picture cards and the other two students
take the possessive adjective cards.

Ask the student with the picture cards to shuffle the cards and
place them face-down in a pile. The two students spread the
possessive adjective cards out face-up on the table.

The student with the picture cards turns over the top card, shows
the card to the two students and says 'It's...' The two students
then race to find the correct possessive adjective and give it to
the student, completing the sentence at the same time, e.g. 'It's
her car'.

The first student to do this keeps both cards. The student with the
most pairs of cards at the end of the game wins. Students then
swap roles and play again.
