How cute! Othello

Students practice the "How xx! What a xx ~~!" grammar pattern while playing 'freestyle' Othello.

I took rebvandev's Freestyle Othello idea and made it digital! Thank you for the inspiration.

Description:
- This digital version is designed to be uploaded for use on students tablets.
- Students play 'Freestyle Othello' in pairs, where the counter can be placed in any square, not just adjacent.
-There are 25 pictures in a 5x5 grid. In order to place a counter students must make a "How xx!" and/or "What (a) xx ~~!" sentence based on the picture in the square they want.
- There is a help sheet to remind them of the form and to give them adjective ideas.
- I animated the powerpoint so that when you click on a picture a white counter appears in that square. Click again for it to change to black. Click again and it'll return to white. The 3rd click on the counter will make it disappear.
