Sentence Showdown
"1. Write a sentence at the top of the whiteboard/blackboard with the words jumbled.
Write something like, “cat cute that so is” (That cat is so cute).
Solve this example sentence yourself, eliciting help from your students to arrange the words properly.
Once they understand the concept, split the class into 2 teams.
Call on one student from each team to compete next. I like to choose the texting, chatting kids in the back of class first.
Once a student from each team is in position to write on their side of the board, it’s time to play.
Write a new jumbled sentence at the top of the board.
While the two students race to write the sentence correctly, encourage the class to help their teammates.
The first team that writes the sentence correctly gets a point. The team with the most points at the end of class wins.
Easy: 1 point — “buffalo like smell you a” (You smell like a buffalo). Medium: 2 points — “forever and me friends be you will” (You and me will be friends forever). Hard: 3 points — “I’ve heard that’s thing ever funniest the” (That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard)."
