Set up the round
How the round plays. The words themselves come from the deck.
Show the word to findThe word to find next sits at the top and is read aloud. Off: any pair, any order.
LettersWhich letters this round. After each group the learner can carry on or finish later, and next time starts where they stopped.
Light the next pairThe next letter and its partner glow, in alphabet order. Off: find any pair, in any order.
Pictures on the coloursA small picture on each colour (an apple on red, a frog on green), for learners who find some colours hard to tell apart.
Order mattersOn for collocations, where a bustling comes before city centre. Off for antonyms and synonyms, where either half can go first.
DifficultyLevel 1 opens fewer words at once and keeps them open longer, often with the partner already showing. Level 3 opens more, closes them sooner, and keeps partners apart.
Held word stays openHow long a tapped word waits for its partner before it closes again.
