Well, the daily new vocabulary words were taking longer to learn. Miss Pat knew she had to come up with something special at the end of every vocabulary session to reward the “Can Do” kids for their hard work.
Since they love word jumbles she decided to give them a word jumble every time they did well.
Here is one they got after a pop spelling quiz.
Just print it out and see how you do.
On days like this, mostly all of the boys and girls have a hard time settling in and paying attention.
So here is the word game, a word jumble to be exact, that Miss Pat gave the class to do.
Miss Pat handed back the vocabulary quiz.She was not happy with the results of the quiz. Many of the class didn’t do as well as she thought they would.
She asked the class why they thought they did poorly on the quiz. Arthur J raised his hand and said,” I didn’t recognize some of the objects on the quiz. I didn’t know their names.”
Miss Pat noticed that some of the other “Can Dos” were nodding their heads in agreement.
That is just what she did!
Go to the “Can Do” Club House, choose games and choose ..Name the Objects.
After you are done naming the objects, write a sentence about each object you matched.
She chose a word jumble for them to do, hoping this would get their attention and they would learn and have fun while learning.
Miss Pat handed out the jumble and the room got quiet. Soon Orrie’s hand went up. Then Maria raised her hand and then Yundi. Sure enough, they all had the jumble right! No homework for them.
ith only 10 days until Christmas, the “Can Do”s were not very interested in regular school work.So, Miss Pat decided to make two Christmas matching games to use in the vocabulary and spelling lessons for the day.
Hector raised his hand and said, “This ought to be easy. I know all about Christmas stuff.” Miss Pat smiled and said,” We’ll see about that Hector.”
Then she asked everyone to go to their computers because the games were interactive matching games that could only be played on the computer.
