Sports in Motion | Sports Action Verb Activities for EFL
Build sports vocabulary through movement with this active classroom resource designed to get learners using English whilst having fun. Students learn and review common sports action verbs by acting them out, competing in team challenges, playing charades, sorting vocabulary, and creating their own sporting sequences. The resource includes 48 printable Sports Movement Cards featuring a wide range of action verbs including sprint, dive, dribble, tackle, serve, smash, and many more. The activities are quick to set up, easy to adapt for different ages and language levels, and are perfect for introducing new vocabulary or revising familiar language through active participation. With a variety of games and extension activities, learners develop sports vocabulary, speaking confidence, communication skills, and quick recall whilst staying active. Students identify sports linked to different actions, compare movements, justify their ideas, and work together to create sporting scenes using the vocabulary they have learned. Whether used as a lesson starter, vocabulary practice, revision activity, or energetic classroom break, Sports in Motion encourages meaningful language learning through movement, teamwork, and communication.
