Did you snag some good deals in the sale? Today's $2 deals include my brand new Math It, Match It: Geometry game & Mystery Science II
Geometry. In my experience, the kids either love it or hate it. Part of the issue is the amount of vocabulary in the units. Math It, Match It: Geometry is a great way for students to master that vocabulary without relying on flash cards or drill & kill memorization techniques. Directions for a couple of game styles are included, but almost any Spot It (or Dobble) game can be played, giving you a "new" game with the same deck of cards.
Mystery Science is an activity I've done almost every year since I started teaching way back in 2005 (we won't talk about 2020). Mystery Science II is an updated version in which I created stations tied more strictly to the Florida benchmarks my 4th graders will be tested on when they take the 5th grade science FCAT. Over the course of 2-3 class periods, students visit different stations that require them to make observations and think critically about different science concepts. If you're not in FL, either version would be great. But, Mystery Science II is on sale today & tomorrow for $2 - half its usual price.
