http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFAODvNihng Games are a natural way to develop social skills as you reinforce letters, words, numbers, math facts, etc. Games are also a good way to nurture self-regulation and 21st Century Skills of cooperation and communication. Stinky Cheese is a hit no matter what age or what skill. In fact, a teacher created “stinky feet” and “stinky socks” because her students enjoyed it so much. But the real secret of any game is YOU! You add the magic with a dramatic voice and silly giggle. Someone once asked me if I would play the game if a student got upset if they lost. My answer was, “YES!” Children need to learn how to lose. Role play what you should do if you lose by teaching the children to shrug and say, “Oh, well!” Don’t overreact or force them to play, but make it so much fun they won’t be able to resist! Stinky Cheese Why? sight words, fluency phrases, letters, math facts, shapes, etc. What? lunch bag, yellow construction paper, marker How? Cut cheese slices out of poster board or fun foam using the link below. Write letters, words, numbers, etc. on most of the cheese slices. On two slices write “Stinky Cheese!” Place the cheese slices in a lunch sack. Children pass around the sack drawing out one slice at a time. If they can identify the information on the slice they get to keep it. If they get “Stinky Cheese!” everyone holds their noses and says, “Stinky Cheese!” That person must then put all her slices back in the bag. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1SnEagA4jljcWpKejBvX1ppOUk/view?usp=sharing *How about a game of “stinky feet” and “stinky socks”?

Happy Fourth of July! I do hope everyone is enjoying the holiday and PARTYING LIKE IT IS 1776! :) Partying like it is 1776....get it? haha.....I would love to take ownership over that little gem, but I found it on Pinterest. Today I am linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for her Monday Made It linky party! I am slowly but surely adding more variations of my Slap Words game. Today, I finished the consonant blend variety..... This game includes practice with two-sound consonant blends and three sound blends. The two sound consonant blend game cards include: bl, br, cl, cr, dr, fr, ft, gl, gr, ld, lf, lk, lm, lp, lt, mp, nd, nk, nt, pl, pr, sc, sk, sl, sm, sn, sp, st, sw, tr, and tw. The three-sound blend game cards include: scr, shr, spl, spr, squ, str and thr. An example of the game cards are pictured below. For each blend there are four cards, totaling 150 cards in the game pack. This means lots of time having fun reading words with two-sound or three-sound blends! Slap Words Blend Edition is super easy to set up and very engaging for students! Directions for the game are listed below---it is as simple as that!! I hope everyone enjoys their day!

Happy Thursday (or any other day you happened to stumble upon this)! It’s mid July (HOW?!) and some are already on the back to school train! Wouldn’t it be amazing if all schools started and ended at the same time… but that would probably be boring! Since some are already headed back I worked hard...
This SECOND SET of original tiles was created to bring even more fun, more learning and more collaboration into your classroom! Collaborative practice in the classroom can facilitate acceptance, cooperation and teamwork. These unique pages offer an incredible variety of collaborative projects that are no-prep, low maintenance, and literally full proof for student success. The concept is simple – the results are awesome! Using common materials such as colored pencils, markers, crayons, paints - each student works independently on his/her “tile.” Once completed, 4 students join their tiles together to form a whole. Simply trim away the excess paper and tape the squares together on the back. Easier still, tape them in place on a large sheet of colored paper. The completed piece is accomplished by turning each square 90 degrees clockwise and measures app.15½ x 15½ inches. You’ll receive 20 boldly designed “tiles,” developed with a broad age level in mind, loosely based on the months of the year. These seasonal images make it easy to incorporate a project into your curriculum anytime you need/want to. You’ll also find Music, PE and Theater themes, as well as a nod to famous artists Robert Indiana and Piet Mondrian. Please check out the Preview to see all the images you don’t see here. Classroom Teachers It’s no secret that integrating art into your subject matter can be highly effective. After all, this product was created based on radial symmetry and fractions! As a math resource, these pages are perfect. Also consider a display of “Locked Hands” for Black History Month. Assemble a class quilt using the “Quilt Block” square. Follow the lines of a “Celtic Knot” for a fresh twist on St. Patrick’s Day. Art Teachers This is a must-have for your sub folder - a no-fuss, engaging project for a wide range of grade levels. Better yet, customize the pages to complement your own curriculum. Based on your specific directives, this product can be adapted to fit your units on color, line, shape, symmetry, asymmetry, pattern, texture, shading, contrast and more. This is a resource that not only delivers on a number of learning levels - it brings the “fun factor!” Your kids will love the ease of the process, the opportunity to create their own page and finally the “wow” moment of contributing to the cool, collaborative artwork.
