11 printable activity dice for the ESL classroom

Dice can be used in all sorts of activities and games. These craft printables are decorated with pictures on the themes of numbers, body parts, clothing, food, fruit, pets, school things, vegetables, weather, zoo animals, and a blank template to add your own theme.

Color then cut out and assemble the dice in class.

Making the activity dice

The printable activity dice are much more easily assembled if printed on card, not paper. You can always stick the paper printout to some card but paper is all you have they still work fine. In this case, it is just a little more fiddly and younger students may need some help.

Firstly get them to add color with crayons or pencils. The teacher can dictate or write instructions on how to color the vocab such as “the jeans are blue”, “the strawberry is red”, “the bird is blue” and so on. The colors don’t need to be accurate and it can be more fun having pink cheese, yellow zebras, and blue carrots.

Remember to tell your students to cut around the outside line of the templates. If a student cuts out an entire section (it happens!) it can easily be put back in place with sticky tape.

Once the outside line has been cut all the remaining lines must be folded.  The final step is to stick it all together. It is better to use sticky tape and a stapler, not glue. It is also a lot less messy!
