If the coin landed on a square with a word it and they could read it correctly then they got to keep the coin in their baggie. If they couldn't read the word correctly, then the coin stayed in the square and the first person to read the word correctly, after flipping their coin into the same square got to keep their coin and the other coins in that square. Since this was a K-1 class, the kids used calculators to add up their coin values to see who won. Another idea for the shower curtains is to draw a large calculator on it. We play addition and subtraction games on it.
Students toss beanbag onto the game board.
They have to hop to the beanbag, say the vowel and the sound. If it is correct, they pick up the bean bag and continue. If not, they leave it there for the next child. This can be played for long or short vowels. Alphabet Activities - Use a permanent marker to divide a shower curtain liner into equal size boxes.
