Less than $5 3rd Grade Back to School Games

"My students loved creating their "Music Superheroes!" while we listened to superhero theme songs! They really enjoyed listening to the classical pieces chosen and were excited to find pieces they had heard before in class." - Music with Mrs. Kennedy

Build a Classical Superhero! Each activity uses the students initial(s) to decode a music-inspired name, instrument, and theme song. Great for a back to school, mini class activity, or a music center.

The objective is to assemble a variety of musical qualities for the hero. Each superhero will have a different story, briefly told through their theme song and other choices. Creative writing or storytelling is encouraged.

Full-color pages for music centers/activities are included, with a variety of design and color options provided. The black & white version is also included.

What's Inside:

• Instruction Page An easy to follow guide of how to build a superhero is provided.
• Superhero Name Generator - Students use their first and last initials to generate a unique hero name. There are two choices per box to choose from - which adds variety if a student has the same first & last initials. The names are from classical composers and are not gender specific.
• Superhero Instrument Sounds - Will their superhero arrive with a loud trumpet blast or a soothing violin? The first letter of their name will lead them to the answer.
• Find Your Superhero Theme! - Every hero needs a theme, and a musical superhero is no exception. Each letter is associated with a popular classical music piece; making their themes easier to identify. A superhero theme will range from Bach'shauntingly beautiful "Toccata and Fugue" to the inspiring "Morning Mood" by Grieg.
• Meet Your Classical Superhero! - All of the activities come together here - students can choose between two characters as their heroes to name and color. The additional character can be their partner or sidekick. After their instrument and theme song have been filled in, students can use the checkbox to choose which musical era they are from.

Looking for a fun way for your students to break the ice and get to know one another? This board game can be what you are looking for. Filled with questions that are simple, easy, and start conversations going. Can be great for the first day back to school, small groups, or lunch bunches.

A HUGE thank you to the following content creators for making my resource possible:

https://www.TeachShare.com/Store/Bunny-On-A-Cloud

https://www.TeachShare.com/Store/P4-Clips-Trioriginals

https://www.TeachShare.com/Store/Educlips

This is a freebie for you!

This game of "Four Corners" is not new or unique; however, this one will work great for your middle schoolers who need to get up and move, and you'll find they are more apt to share without raising their hands or writing it down. This quick and easy, no prep and no printing activity will allow you to truly get to know them on a personal level very quickly.

It's HIGHLY visual so this could even fly in a Core French classroom (Grades 5 - 9); however, I use it in an immersion setting (Grades 5 and 6). It could comfortably be used in any Immersion or French first-language classroom (Grades 3 - 9). As with all of my products, it's not at all babyish and doesn't feature fonts that are frilly or hard-to-read.

For this activity, simply project and GO. I let my students know that they will have to choose their response and move to the corner of the room that suits their answer. You can either click through the slides, have a student touch your SmartBoard to move them along, or you can use a remote clicker or mouse (I do while I'm playing!) to keep the slides rolling.

This Google Slide Deck features :

• 29 pre-created, non-modifiable question slides with 4 options to choose from.
• A template for you to use if you'd like to add in your own questions at the end of the presentation.

Other ways to play:

• I've also allowed students independently to each create a slide and add it into the mix on day 2! Should you choose this option, simply copy the last slide into a Google Slide (11" x 8.5") and share a copy to each student in Google Classroom. Let the magic begin!
• You can choose to extend this activity by having your students huddled in their corners chat about their preferences, or share with the whole group. You can also (I do!!) play WITH them and get to know your students based on these small conversations in the "corners" of your classroom.

I hope you have a G R E A T back-to-school, and hope your kids love you! I sure appreciate all of you!

Don't forget to have fun and be real!

Kaitlyn.

There are two activities included in this package. One is a count and match file folder game. The game is a fantastic way for your students to practice one-to-one correspondence while counting, number recognition as well as shape and color matching. There is #2 pages of numbers 1-10 as well as two pages of the corresponding number of shapes for each number 1-10.
Print, laminate and attach the #2 pages with numbers on them to a file folder. Then cut out and laminate the strips with the shapes on them.
Once everything is laminated attach a velcro dot on the front of each number strip and then attach velcro dots to the opposite side of the paper strips with the number of corresponding shapes on them.

The task cards are a great way to incorporate shape, color, and number-matching practice. As well as fine motor skills by practicing the pinching motion in order to attach the clothes pins onto each task card.

The shape cards are in different colors so the students will have to identify and pick the correct shape and color. The number task cards have different amounts of each shape so the students will have to use one-to-one correspondence to count how many shapes and then attach the clothespin to the correct number.

There is #24 different shape/color matching task cards as well as #10 count and match number cards included in this product.

There is also reading practice on each task card for your older students who are at that level.

I hope you and your students enjoy this resource as much as I enjoyed making it.
