Don't miss the following game, taken from: http://reliefteachingideas.com/area-dice-game/ Area Dice Game A game for 2 or 3 players. Each player chooses a colour pencil or texta they will use in the game. Players take turns rolling the dice, using the numbers that they rolled to draw the perimeter of a rectangle or square & writing the area in the middle of the shape. Game ends when players run out of room to draw. Winner is the player who has used the largest area/most squares. A couple of tips: Have the students add up their areas as they go so that it is easier for them to work out the winner in the end! I always take with me a class set of dice, just in case I can’t locate any in the classroom that I’m in. You can usually find cheap dice in discount stores or on eBay. I also take with me a book of 1cm grid paper. I buy this from a newsagency. Grid paper is handy to have for games like this one, maths, graphing, and creating word searches & crosswords.

Image by Getty Images via @daylifeMore amazing things I’m learning in the BrainSMART graduate program... Students who are taught reading comprehension strategies are more successful readers. While some students may eventually learn some of these strategies on their own, they can be taught quite effectively in the early elementary grades. Here are ten reading comprehension strategies from Ellin Keene’s book Assessing Comprehension Thinking Strategies to consider. 1. Think out loud. Good readers monitor their thinking while reading. 2. Use schema. Consciously connect the text to preexisting knowledge and experiences and consider how it helps their understanding of the text. 3. Inferring. Use experience and information from the text to draw conclusions, make connections, predictions, and form opinions. 4. Ask questions about the text before, during, and after reading. 5. Make decisions about what is important in the text (elements and themes). Be able to summarize the main points. 6. Set a purpose for reading to make it meaningful. 7. Monitor comprehension. Make sure students have strategies in place if they find the text too difficult. 8. Visualize what is being read. Make brain movies! Tune into the sensory and emotional images of the text to enhance the visualization. Use this information to help make inferences and draw conclusions. 9. Synthesizing and retelling. Keeping track of their impressions while reading and identifying the underlying meaning of the text. Connect the text to information from other sources. Extending that information beyond the text to form opinions and read critically. 10. Text structure. Understanding the elements of a story and how stories are put together helps students analyze and think critically about meaning. Even learning just one or two of these metacognitive strategies has been shown to make a difference in reading performance. Which strategies do your students already use? Which ones will they learn next?
