Tic-Tac-Toe, 3 in a Row!!!

Here's a fun take on a game we all love. All you need is a mini-white board and dry erase markers. You can use this game for math facts, spelling, vocabulary…anything!!!

To help one of my kiddos with her spelling words, we looked at the words she misspelled on her pre-test. I wrote them the correct way for her and highlighted them.

To play the game: I told her one of the words and she wrote it in one of the spaces. Then, I had her look at the list to check if she was correct. It's a great way to reinforce how to spell it. Then, she chose one of the words for me to spell. She also had to check to see if I spelled it correctly. We keep playing until someone wins.

I love this game because it's almost zero-prep. and can be used for almost anything. My kiddos love it because they are having fun and not even realizing they are studying!!! You can use it during a small group lesson, with buddies, and during Literacy Workshop.

My name is Kristen and I’ve enjoyed teaching kindergarten, first grade, a 1/2 combo, and second grade.  I’ve taught at both a low and high-performing Title I schools as well as a few fancy schools in California and O’ahu, Hawaii. I’ve earned my Master’s Degree in Education with an emphasis in reading in addition to my Reading Specialist Certificate.  When I am not teaching my scholars or other educators at Professional Development classes, I  enjoy creating materials to share with my colleagues, organizing family literacy events, and giving workshops on ways to make Literacy Workshop effective and engaging.
