Chapter 5 is full of active games for building vocabulary you've covered in class. We practiced a few of these in summer school. Even games I thought sounded a little cheesy...the kids really enjoyed!
While reviewing the games, I wanted to come up with a quick reference guide to help me remember the games when lesson planning throughout the school year. Eventually, I simply tabbed my book and gave up on the idea. Yet...(drum roll), the blog Fourth Grade Flipper came up with a beautiful quick reference sheet!
There are two pages to her masterpiece! Go to her blog for a free download! You can find it here!
You will also find other wonderful ideas from her blog. I will post her blog shortcut on the sidebar with other wonderful blogs you can access.
The summer is flying by...my own personal timeline gives me only two more weeks before I start back to work. Where does the time fly? Yet, I am thankful for the time to refresh, reflect, and learn new ideas for the classroom. Our instructional coach, Mrs. Daniels, came in and met with me yesterday to show me how to create a Prezi. It was an idea someone posted in the blog world, to use with the Word Nerds instructional pieces. Thanks, Mrs. Daniels, it looks like something I can easily and quickly use for our classroom. I can't wait for time to sit down and play with it.
On another note, I know there are several of us reading Word Nerds this summer. I'm looking forward to reading your comments! :)
