Instructional Ideas

  • Place game pieces and instructions into a manilla envelope for early finishers to easily grab and play when time permits 
  • Print onto cardstock, color the cards, and laminate for continued use

Classroom Considerations

  • Learners may be more familiar with the term sled versus the term used, sledge 
  • The game is the first resource in a series of seven designed to reinforce winter vocabulary  

Pros

  • Large, bold font on word cards 
  • Cartoon-like images captivate young audiences

Cons

  • Images and text are unfocused
