games
By michelle

there are lots of great review games to go with the sports theme..
for example, i using spelling basketball with a plastic clip on hoop and nerf ball..students divide into two teams..they must spell the word correctly
in order to get a shot..the teams compete against each other to win the game..
i also came across a neat football gameboard (or draw your own)..i put on the overhead and we review for tests..the class vs. me.. i draw a number (or students name)..that student has the opportunity to answer the question..if they do so correctly they move ten yards towards their goal line..if not i move ten

yards...base the game on a time limit to see who wins..usually i do something like if the class wins no homework in that subject matter..if i win they do homework in it,etc...
you can keep carrying this theme on with many subjects and many types of games..spelling bechball, etc..
