While there are many game formats available, I’ve come to rely on my Human Game Boards. Students are able to get up out of their seats, work collaboratively in teams, and get to compete for valuable prizes (usually my praise and over-the top worship)!
I have game boards ready for you in my TpT Store. Just pick a color to coordinate with your classroom, print, laminate, and lay them out for play. I recommend using packing tape, and leave them down all year. Other that for big review games at the end of a unit of semester, you can also use the setup for quick time-filling reviews anytime!
Available in my store:
Color variations on Standard Human Game Boards: Blues, Red, Yellow, Brown
Scrabble/Word Wall Game Board Set
Colors & Shapes Game Board Set
And hang on; that holiday break is coming soon!
Happy Teaching!
