6 File Folder Games

File folder games allow students opportunities to learn to through play. Communication and appropriate interactions are important skills they will need throughout life.

This set provides 6 different activities, however they each follow the same general rules, expectations, and idea. I use this with my kiddos that need practice turn taking, losing (students may lose a desired game piece), cooperation, following directions, matching and so much more. The games are easy in nature, however highly addictive for the competitive kids. This allows for opportunities with students in differing abilities.

The themes for the games are:

Fill the Wagon

Make a cake

Buggy Day

Laundry

Moon Walk

Ice Cream

Rules (some differences in games - this example is the Fill the wagon rules).

Contents & Prep:

• Print/Laminate 1 mat per person, use a expo marker to personalize wagons.  Each player will collect their items in their wagon.
• Print and laminate 4 dogs, 4 flowers, 4 ice cream, 4 bubbles, 1 book, 1 leaf pile - place them in the middle of the game board. 
• Print the game board and glue/laminate to a file folder
• Print and prepare dice (or use your own dice)

*For easy storage of game pieces attach an envelope to the back of the file folder prior to lamination.  Make a small slice in the lamination to release the top of the envelope.  Attach velcro to close.  

Object:  Be the first to collect all the items except the leaf pile in your wagon.   If you have the books or the leaf pile and someone else lands on it you have to give it to the other player.  

Choose your player:  Once you have chosen your player, place them on the board any spot will do!

Directions:  

1. Roll the dice and move your player.
2. Collect the pieces as you go and place them in your wagon.   You may only get one of each item!  
3. The first person to collect 1 dog, 1 flower, 1 ice cream, 1 bubble and the books wins!

For 2-4 players

This Fall Pumpkin-Themed Errorless File Folder Game is designed for early learners and special education classrooms, offering an engaging, no-fail learning experience. Perfect for students with autism and other developmental needs, this resource uses the principles of errorless learning to build confidence and essential skills in a structured, supportive environment.

What’s Included:

• Colorful pumpkin task cards

• Two types of worksheets:

  • Table format: Pumpkins are placed in clearly defined boxes, helping students match colors and shapes in an organized manner.
  • Randomly placed pumpkins: A more flexible layout where students can freely attach pumpkins, reinforcing the idea that there are no wrong answers.

• Both worksheets include optional gray dots to guide pumpkin placement with Velcro.

Key Features and Benefits:

• No Wrong Answers: Designed with errorless learning in mind, this activity allows students to practice matching and attaching pumpkins without the pressure of making mistakes. Every response is correct, boosting their confidence and enthusiasm for learning.
• Left-to-Right Task Completion: The activity encourages students to complete tasks in a left-to-right sequence, an important foundation for literacy and math development.
• Hands-On, Tactile Learning: The use of laminated file folder games with Velcro and detachable pumpkin cards makes this a fun, interactive way for students to engage in the activity. It promotes fine motor skills and sensory involvement.

How to Use and Prepare:

1. Print and Laminate the colorful pumpkin task cards and corresponding worksheets with pumpkin outlines for durability.
2. Add Velcro: Attach Velcro dots to the back of the colorful pumpkins and on the worksheet. For worksheets with gray dots, place the Velcro over these dots to guide students on where to attach the pumpkins.
3. Organize: Set up the worksheets in a file folder and store the detachable pumpkins in a clear pouch or pocket for easy access and storage.
4. Use: Introduce the activity by guiding students to detach and reattach the pumpkins, explaining that there is no wrong way to complete the task. Whether used for independent work or as part of a group activity, this file folder game promotes success and engagement.

This resource is ideal for special education teachers, therapists, or parents seeking a structured, error-free activity that supports early learners in building essential skills through hands-on, interactive play.

HOW TO GIVE FEEDBACK:

Go to your "My Purchases" page.Click the "Leave a review" button

Some students on my caseload are very quiet; either because they are shy, afraid, or simply don’t know what to share. Oftentimes, it can be difficult for them to open up so I created a worksheet that allows them to decide what they feel comfortable talking about. 

Because the worksheet can also serve as a coloring page, most students tend to feel comfortable in deciding their topic of conversation. Students simply color in the heart with the subject they’d like to address. 

This worksheet works well for 1:1 counseling sessions or for teachers who notice a student having a hard time. Simply pull them to the side, or place the worksheet on their desk and have them bring it to you when they are ready.
