Game: Short Vowels

I found this great game online to practice short vowels sounds, and I want to share it with you. There are three games total on the "Main" page - one for letters, short vowels, and long vowels. This works great on a SMART board too!

Ice Pop Memory

I saw this cute idea on Pinterest today.

I love the use of color and the simplicity of the game. I think I will use this to review art ideas about types of lines or shapes. You could use this in several ways:

1. Large group game - have students come up and pick one stick.
2. Individual review for fast finishers or assessment
3. Play memory in partners (remember you need two of each pattern)

Time to get out my scrapbook paper and craft sticks!
