It has been such a busy week! Tuesday came and went, so today I'm linking up with Fourth Grade Flipper for Tried it Tuesday!
Last summer, I visited a teacher store in Nebraska and found this neat card game. It's called Triple Play, and my kids love it! I have a few sets: Homophones, Synonyms, Antonyms, and Math Vocabulary (not pictured).
The games offer three ways to play: Go Fish, Memory, and Match Maker. I divided each set into 2 piles, because each set has 25 pairs. Try playing memory with that! The cards spread across the whole table! So I divided them up to make matching more manageable. Now kids can just grab a bundle and get to work. My guided reading groups especially like using them as a warm-up activity.
I love that the cards have clear pictures and sentences. Perfect for my ELL kiddos!

Like I said before, I found these at a little teacher store in Nebraska. I did look online and the ONLY place I could find them was on Amazon. I actually found many other Triple Play games that I had not seen before! Click the links below to check out the games. :)
What did you try this week? I'd love to hear about it!
Until next time,
