Nasco The Clothes Game
Grades 7-12.
By Carol Schmelzel.
Watch your students grow in awareness of styles and fashion as they recognize styling details in the clothing they buy or make by playing this game. The card game, which is played similarly to Old Maid,
includes terms often heard or read, but not always understood - such as raglan sleeve, boat neck, welt pocket, epaulets, gored skirt, etc. The game is fun and challenging for both boys and girls because it includes styles worn by men and boys, women and girls, as well as styles worn by either sex. The drawings on the picture cards in the deck clearly represent 26 different style terms. Each picture has a matching name card. All players want to avoid being left holding the odd FASHION FLOP card! Included in the game are six copies of the study guide and answer key (one for each player) for study before or after the game. The guide pictures all the styles in the game plus a brief description of each. For 2-6 players.
