Supplies:
- Paper and pencils for each child
- Clock or stopwatch
- Prize
Preparation:
Prepare game sheets using your word processor. Simply center the words 'Valentine's Day' at the top of the page. Use a cute font and graphic if you like.
Game Play:
- Give each child a game sheet and pencil. (I like to give each child a sharpened Valentine pencil to keep for this game.)
- At 'Go', children write as many words as possible from the letters in Valentine's Day.
- Time the kids for 3-5 minutes and then call, 'Stop.'
- The child with the most correct words wins a small Valentine prize.
Grade Range:
This game usually works best with grades 4-6.
