Gerund & Infinitive Dominoes
In this enjoyable dominoes game, students practice making sentences by matching verbs to
gerunds or infinitives.
Before class, make one copy of the domino cards for each group of four and cut as
indicated.
Procedure
Split the class into groups of four and hand out a set of domino cards to each group.
One student in each group deals out nine dominoes to each player then places one domino
face up in the middle of the table.
The other domino cards are placed face down in a pile.
Keeping their domino cards secret, the students look at their cards.
Students take it in turns to make a complete sentence using a gerund or infinitive by placing
one of their dominoes at either end of the domino line.
They do this by matching a verb (in bold) to a gerund or infinitive or vice-a-versa.
They then make a sentence to show it's correct.
If a student can't think of a sentence or the sentence is incorrect, they take a card from the
pile and play passes to the next player.
Play continues until one player has used all of their cards.
This student is the winner.
