Goal: Practice reading the clock

Analog clocks are so much more attractive than digital clocks. Let's help preserve a beautiful piece of our history. Sundials have been lost, don't let it happen to analog clocks.

This set includes two printable card games:

FamilyMom is like “Old Maid” (only better).At the end of the game, the FamilyMom card holder is the winner. This PDF includes an “Old Maid” card, just in case you want to play the 'old way.'

Luke's Card Game is similar to “Golf,” only with 6 cards, which makes it a catchy, very quick paced game.

To prepare this activity print the answer key/ sticker page onto an address label sticker page. Stick the answers onto the clothespins. Answers could be written or stuck on the back if self-check is desired.

Beginning players could use the questions with answers, then switch to just answers as they memorize problems. Eventually, players will clip the answers to the correct problems.

Homonyms Board Game

The board includes six different homonym sets with each of their definitions. I suggest playing with one part of a set at a time.

A player that spins “Prays” for example could choose:

prays -plead, or

preys -feeds on, or

praise -compliment

If you want students to use them all, have them touch each word and definition. Their turn ends with the last definition.

We do have a GoFish card game using the same words, sold separately.

Clothespin Activity

This is a single player activity unless you make copies to race, or race against another player with a timer.

Prepare the activity by printing the board onto card stock and the word sheet onto a sticker page or card stock. Attach the stickers to clothespins or cut the cards apart to be clipped to the board. Answers (or numbers) for self check could be added to the back of the board and clothespins.

The board has ten words and the word page has an antonym and a synonym for each word.

A fun way to practice reading phonics lists

This is our traditional board game where you spin a spinner or draw a card then move your marker around the board. Our phonics boardgames are created using typical words found on phonics list. So it is most beneficial if a student reads their way around the board listening for “their” sound.
