Superlative Adjectives- Dice Bluffing Game
Choose one of the tables below. Roll a dice twice, the first time to decide the adjective
(from the second column below) and the second time to decide the noun (from the third
column), e.g. “the healthiest meal (I have ever had)”. Tell your partner about something
that matches those words, e.g. the best evening you have ever had. If you can’t quickly
think of something that really matches those words, just use your imagination. Speak as
long as you can. After listening to your story (without interrupting) and then maybe asking
questions to get more details, your partner will guess if your story was true or it was just
your imagination.
