For the past two years I have been creating for my students play sheets with the Hebrew words necessary to play familiar games in Hebrew. The goal was to help my students express themselves in Hebrew. Following the learning at the Institute of Play, I started thinking about how can I have my students continue to play in Hebrew while learning and reviewing areas of learning the students might find confusing and tedious.
The Uno game, which my students were already playing in Hebrew, seemed to be a good game to modify. (the colors were in-line with the colors I have been using in my classroom. I went through many modifications. at first, I put in all the possible combinations of prefixes and suffixes but it became to difficult to find a set. At this stage I am limiting it to only אני/אתה this makes it easy enough to find a set but still challenging.

Goal: Students work on building words in the different tenses.
Students become familiar with the location of prefixes and suffixes depending on the tense.
Students collaborate by helping each other build words.

Rules:
Follow the basic Rules of Uno with some modifications:
1. Players lay out their cards for all players to see.
2. On your turn: you can put down any set of the current color being played.
for example: if the starting color is red=עבר you can put down a full set (3 cards)
card 1: אני
card 2: any Shoresh/פעיל card
card 3: the suffix: תי
3. If you don't have a full set you can take cards from other players decks to help build your set (therby helping yourself and the other player)
4. You can change the color by having a matching number or action card.
5. Action cards are played the same as in regular Uno (draw 2, skip, draw 4, wild, reverse)
6. The three colors played are: Yellow: הווה Red: עבר Blue: עתיד
Green are the verb cards which are used to create the sets. (every set has a verb card but green is never played as its own color)
