• Government Vision<br />
Group the students in a circle. Have two students stand in the center<br />
of the circle with funnels. The two students should place the funnels<br />
over one of their eyes and cover their other eyes with one of<br />
their hands. The two students should look at the floor, through their<br />
funnels. Give the vocabulary illustrations to the students who are<br />
sitting in a circle. When you say “Go,” the students should pass the<br />
illustrations around the circle in a clockwise direction. When you<br />
clap your hands, the students should stop passing the vocabulary<br />
illustrations. Say a sentence that contains one of the vocabulary<br />
words. The two students should then raise their heads and search<br />
the circle (through the funnels) to see who is holding the illustration<br />
for the vocabulary word that you said in the sentence. The first<br />
player to do this successfully wins the round. The “winner” should<br />
remain in the center of the circle until he/she is beaten. Repeat<br />
many times.<br />
