In this game, students have to find their monster cut-out's mate by practicing Portuguese body vocabulary.
Each monster has an unusual collection of body part (i.e., extra legs, fingers where feet should be etc.). The instructor hands out the cards randomly. First, students write a short paragraph describing their monster. Then, students have to find their monster's pair by asking other students what their monsters look like. This activity is good practice for question words and body vocabulary. It can easily be implemented in any language class.
