S U R P R I S E!!!! I’ve teamed up with @goliathgamesus to give one of you ALL 3 of these games to use in your classroom!These games are super high quality and so much fun! I almost jumped out of my skin when the 🦈 went to “bite” my hand and we all laughed and laughed.Use these fun games during indoor recess but you can also use them in so many other ways. Practice one-to-one correspondence, color word recognition, counting, subitizing, taking turns, and so much more. I love to pull out games to work on all kinds of skills. If you are practicing rhyming- ask students to generate a rhyming word before they go 🎣 , play ⛳️ , or feed the 🐷 ! You can also play that they have to answer a flash card question of any kind before each turn.Entering is super simple! Be sure you are following me and tell me what YOU appreciate about being a teacher? What do you LOVE about your job? Tag a teacher friend for an extra entry!We will pick a random name from the comments and announce the winner on Sunday 5/14. These games can be found on Amazon and from other major retailers.Happy Teacher’s Appreciation week friends!!!.This giveaway is not sponsored or endorsed by Instagram......#teacherappreciation #teacherappreciationweek #ilovetoteach #teachershare #teachers #teacherlife #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #kindergarten #eslteacher #iteachesl #iteachk #firstgrade #prek #preschool #makelearningfun #happyclassrooms #makeeverydaygameday ...
