Matching Game
Target group: younger
Supplies: cards with pictures of triggers on one side
Activity
- Using the trigger cards, place all face down on a table.
- Players take turns turning 2 cards over face up; hoping to find a match
- As a player finds the “match” a discussion about what trigger takes place e.g. what it is, how to avoid it, trouble shooting etc.
- Player with the most pairs at the end wins a prize
Other card games using Trigger Cards include:
- Go Fish
- Poker (older students) deal out 5 trigger cards and try to get a pair, 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, full house
This idea came from the RAP instructors at Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga, ON and has been used in the Ontario Public Health School Asthma Project.
