Pelmanism game at Teach Online using the topic Cafe in Spanish

Instead of playing cards, in our pelmansim each cell is occupied by a picture from a selected topic. Teams take it in turns to specify two pictures then name or describe them in the target language. If the class decides the language was acceptable, the team can click on the two pictures. If the numbers hidden behind the pictures match, those cells are cleared and points are scored. The game ends when all the pictures have been cleared revealing a starscape behind. The language (speech and text) for a picture is available by clicking on the question mark.

Pelmanism is a game you can use free with up to 15 topics in your language teaching.
