It seemed like everyone got at least one snow day this week! Well, of course, we didn't get one in Florida, so I wanted to bring "snow" to my students!
We had a SNOWBALL FIGHT!
I thought it would be a fun, quick way to review for vocabulary! (And, it was!) Each student wrote one of our vocabulary words with the synonym and antonym on a piece of white paper. (I didn't tell them what we were going to do with the paper-they just figured we were going to play some sort of review game). Then I had them crinkle it up and told them we were going to have a snowball fight...{insert lots of squeals of delight}.
Okay, get ready...
THROW!
I let them throw their snowballs for about a minute each time.
I let them throw them several times before I yelled, "FREEZE!"
Then my students had to open their "snowball" to review their vocabulary words.
We played a few rounds and they LOVED it and BEGGED to for more!
This could be used for any subject matter...a fun, easy, quick, seasonal way to motivate your students! :)
Next week I think we'll build a snowman!
I hope you had a wonderful week! Please link up any lessons, ideas, tips, tricks, incentives, ANYTHING you do get your students motivated or excited!
