Subject: any (depending on the questions you create)
Grade: all (changing the difficulty of the math questions)
Age: all
Submitted by: Brenda Essig, a teacher from Pennsylvania.
What You Need:
- Beach Ball
- Permanent Marker
What You Do:
- Bring those summer blues into your classroom.
- Blow up a beach ball and write questions or problems on it with a permanent marker.
- For example, 2x2, What is the capital of Oregon?
- Throw the beach ball to a child in the classroom and the person who catches it must answer that question or problem.
- I usually have them answer the question by telling them, "When you catch the ball whatever question is the nearest to your left hand you must answer."
- The children have a "ball" with this learning game.
