FREE OOPS - CARD VERSION

This OOPS Card Version can be played in any class but can also be used for ESL classes.

INCLUSIONS:

  • Teacher Guide
  • Email Support
  • Four (4) pages of OOPS Cards (9 cards per page - a total of 36 cards)

Objective:
The objective of the game "Oops" is to get your teammates to guess a word without using certain pre-defined words or phrases associated with it - these are called "Oopsies"

Gameplay:

  1. The clue giver draws a card from the deck, revealing the mystery word and its associated oopsies (taboo words).
  2. The clue giver must describe the word without using any of the "oopsies" listed on the card.
  3. The clue giver's teammates try to guess the word based on the clues given.
  4. The clue giver can use any verbal clues or gestures but must avoid the "oopsies" at all costs.
  5. The clue giver's teammates can make as many guesses as they want within a time limit (usually one minute).
  6. If a teammate guesses the word correctly, the team earns a point. If the clue giver uses an "oopsie," they forfeit a point.
  7. After the time is up or the word is correctly guessed, play passes to the next team.
  8. Play continues back and forth until all players have had a turn as the clue giver or a set number of rounds has been completed.
  9. The team with the most number of points wins.
