RULES: The same rules as the regular memory games(the only difference is they are going to match the long forms with the sort forms).
Foreign students sometimes do not realize there are many reductions in English. They feel frustrated when they are not able to understand spoken English. This is in part to because they are not aware of short forms. A way to help them is by showing same expressions in both short and long forms. Examples:
want to- wanna going to-gonna ought to-outta because-'cause a lot of- alotta see you-seeya got to-gotta let me-lemmi give me-gimmi what have-wattav etc.
I advise the teacher to read aloud the cards when the students pick them up in order to encourage them to repeat and learn them.
