Beginners (6-7 years old): No Scoring: Let each child choose a card that fits a simply told story. Afterwards, they explain why they chose that card.

Advanced learners (8-9 years old): Limit the Choices: For example, only lay out 3 cards per round to make it easier. 

Experts (9–10 years old): Play Cooperatively: Work together to choose the correct card that fits a story.

How to play cooperatively:

• One student places 4 cards in the middle and tells a story that fits one of the cards.
• The others listen carefully.
• They must guess which card the storyteller is talking about. The storyteller counts to three, and the other students point to their chosen card at the same time.
• If everyone is correct, the group earns the card as a point. They should try to earn as many points as possible together. If someone is wrong, the group gets no point.
• All cards are then removed, and the next student becomes the storyteller.
