    This lesson teaches students the English vocabulary for cards and suits using dictionaries. Students work in pairs or groups to look up the meanings of card-related words like "diamonds", "king", and "spades" in bilingual dictionaries. The first group to finish identifying all the words wins. Sample cards are then displayed on the board for students to practice saying the full names, like "the ace of spades", emphasizing correct use of articles and plural forms. The goal is to familiarize students with English card terminology in around 10 minutes.
