## What is Sidestep?

Can you describe the word without saying it?

Sidestep is a friendly word game for English learners. One player sees a word and four "don't say" words. They describe it, and their team guesses. It's fast, funny, and full of real speaking practice.

MADE FOR LEARNERS
• Decks for every level, from A1 to B2
• Pictures on A1 and A2 cards help new learners
• Sid, our mascot, gives hints when you get stuck
• Pick an age group: kids, teens, or adults
• Menus and help in English or Turkish

FOUR WAYS TO PLAY
• Team Party: two teams take turns
• Hot Seat: one student guesses, and the class describes
• Draw it: draw the word instead of saying it
• Reverse: read the meaning and say the word

FOR TEACHERS
• Make your own decks from your class word list
• Sid can write the cards for you, or find words in a reading
• Share a deck with a link or a QR code your class can scan
• Add your own photo to any card
