Students sort letters into two groups, upper and lower case. When they get it right the monkeys cheer them on.

Koosh-ball Game

This one I did not make I found it but it is still awesome. This is a template for a game where students pick a circle and it links to a question. You plug in the questions and answer choices. I had to move the answer down to the bottom of the screen to get it to work correctly. Oh and this works with throwing a koosh-ball at the screen as well if your board reacts to touch.
Here is one I made over Texas History

Fishing Game

This is my take on the Koosh-Ball game and takes it… “Under The Sea!” Plug in your questions and answer choices then launch this Google slides activity for tons of fun. To kick it up a notch attach your koosh-ball to one of those little kids fishing poles!

STRIKE ZONE!

Strike Zone is the coolest thing ever! Take me out to the ball game! I made this in Google Slides. It works like trashketball. The teacher asks students questions from vocab, an activity, or a study sheet. If the student gets the question correct they get to pitch the koosh-ball at the screen. If they hit the strike zone they earn a point for their team.

Cornhole

Take your students to the virtual back yard and play some cornhole. It works like trashketball. The teacher asks students questions from vocab, an activity, or a study sheet. If the student gets the question correct they get to toss the koosh-ball at the screen. They earn different points for the different holes.

CVC Words Activity

This CVC words activity has three different parts. The first section asks students to create CVC words by dragging letters together from a letter bank to form the words. The second section asks students to drag vowels up from the letter bank to complete CVC words. The Third section asks students to write in the vowel to complete the CVC words.
