8th Grade Vocabulary Games

Scattegories is a fun and challenging board game that tests your creativity and quick thinking. I have recreated a classroom version for SPANISH LEARNERS called: ¡PÁREME LA MANO! also called in other countries, TUTTI FRUTI o PARA EL FUEGO. This is a fun game we used to play in school growing up in South America. I have tried in my own classroom and kids LOVE IT! This is such a great game to practice vocabulary and parts of the speech.

This product contains two versions of this game. One for individual play and one for a group game. There are a set of rules for both games but these are just suggested rules as you can set your own depending of the group of kids you teach. Kids will only need a dice, a white board marker and a wiper.

• This game was inspired by the game TABOO

1. Students are put into small groups with an even number of players.
2. Each group is split into 2 teams.
3. The clue giver will start a 1 minute timer and turn over a card so nobody can see. (colors don' matter)
4. The clue giver now says words (not sounds or gestures) to get their team to guess the word at the top of the card.
5. The clue giver cannot say any of the words (or forms of the words) listed on the card. Formations include: abbreviations, tenses (past, present, future), initials, spelling, letters, sounds like, rhyming, smaller version words, compound words.

6. Teammates can guess as many words as possible before the timer runs out.
7. The clue giver may pass on a word and place it in a discard pile.
8. If the clue giver uses an illegal word, the opposing team who is monitoring, can sound a buzzer or shout the word "AVID." Then the clue giver must place the card in the discard pile and try a new word.
9. When the timer is done the team will count up how many points earned based off of how many words were guessed correctly. The opposing team gets one point for each card placed in the discard pile.
10 Switch teams and repeat. The team with the highest points, wins!

This Four Corners Game is a fun, no-prep activity you can use to review the homophones "there" "their" and "they're" that your students will LOVE! They will love moving around the room as you click through the 40 fill-in-the-blank sentences. I’ve found that my students confuse these words and, as a result, their writing is hard to understand. You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to test their knowledge, get exposure to sentence examples, and even learn something new! This is an activity I use in my classroom every year and I know your students will enjoy it as much as my students do! Check out my other Four Corners Games here!

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

• 40 Fill-in-the Blank Sentences

• 40 Slide Answer Key

• 4 Printable Classroom Signs

• Definition of Terms (Mini-Lesson)

STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE

First, review the three terms using the Mini-Lesson slide with examples.

Then, after reading each sentence on the board, move to the side of the room labeled “THERE,” “THEIR,” or “THEY'RE” depending on which word you think should fill the blank. There's an additional fun emoji slide for students who are unsure of the answer!

REFLECTION:
The class can review the answers and comments as a whole group when the activity is complete. You’ll be surprised how much better they’ll get at writing without confusing using these homophones after being exposed to this high-quality kinesthetic review!
