🧩 Find the Other Half (Puzzle Game)

Find the other half game is like a puzzle where students find the other half to complete a card. It comes with a picture and a word.  It has a means on the cognitive development giving the student the ability to reason.

🃏 Domino Game

Increase your student’s motivation as they will be eager  to wait to play DOMINO. Students will use their fine motor ability to pick up the tiles and place them where they belong on the game.

If you want to give a twist to the domino, I found this activity suitable for your students. Give a student or students the double of any item and have them find all the tiles that have that item, here is my example using the cotton candy double.

Get students to identify the tiles using the arrow pointer.

Place the tiles on a table, have your students find the items on the tiles as they point and name each one.
Teacher: Find the clown!

And, take a look!

Circus Theme Bingo! 

A classic for helping with visual discrimination. Students will color each item on their template in one of the colors playing cards. Each item will be in only one color. The teacher will have the calling cards ready.

Board Game

Board games encourage communication and social interaction. As students move around the board, they practice vocabulary, take turns, and engage with their classmates.
