Sports Mixer is an online game for young learners on the British Council's site for young learners, LearnEnglish Kids. In the game children will practise vocabulary related to sports clothes and equipment. In the game learners see a picture of a girl who loves sports and a description of what she needs to do a particular sport, for example 'I want to play football. I need a football strip, a football, and some football boots.' This game is suitable for primary learners and is very motivating for both boys and girls. On this page you will find tips for using and extending the game in the classroom.
