{New} Vocabulary Activity: Secret iPod Words!!!

Hey everyone!!  I hope you are enjoying your 3 day weekend (if you are having one!).  I used some of my time off to make this AWESOME activity which I like to call "Secret" iPod Word!  I think you and your students will absolutely love it.

This activity/game focuses on synonyms, antonyms, and rhyming words.

Included: 

•Poster explaining what synonyms, antonyms, and rhyming words are.

•72 cards with a “secret word”, synonym, antonym, and rhyming word.

•9 homework/extra practice pages.

How to play:

Students can be divided into teams or each student can play for himself/herself.  On a board, make 3 columns with the headings, synonym, antonym, and rhyming word.   

The SLP/teacher chooses a card (as seen above)  and starts by reading ONLY the antonym.  The first team/student to raise their hand, gets a chance to guess the “secret word”.  Alternative: Go back and forth between students/teams allowing each a chance to solve a “secret word”. If a team/student is able to guess the “secret word” when given only the antonym, 3 points are earned.  When both the antonym and synonym are given, 2 points are earned.  When all three clues are given, 1 point is earned.  Less clues equals more points!

 Use the included homework pages for students to practice the “new” words they have learned!

Hope you all enjoy this activity!  I had so much fun creating it!  Thanks everyone for the support!!!

{NEW} Activity: Skiing into vocabulary

Hey everyone!!!  Here is my newest activity...Skiing into VOCABULARY! This activity targets upper elementary and middle school aged students.  Head over to my TPT store to grab this activity!!!

Don't forget to "like" my Facebook page for an upcoming GIVEAWAY of this activity as well as many more!!!!

Preparing:

Print, laminate, and cut all cards.

Included:

80 Cards: Scrambled words with definitions

The first letter of each scrambled word is underlined.

Answer Keys

How to play:

Shuffle and divide cards evenly to students.  Students will keep cards in a pile face down in front of them.  Students take turns choosing their top card from the pile and unscramble the word shown on their card one at a time.  After all students in the group have unscrambled their words, everyone discards their cards into the center of the table at the same time.  When two discarded cards match, the first student to call out the word “match” or the word of the match shown like, “tree, gloves, skis, etc.”, gets the entire pile. The student with the most cards wins!

Alternative for younger students:

Place answer keys in direct view of group or give each student their own set of answer keys to assist them with unscrambling the words. (Like a word bank!)

I hope you all enjoy!!!
