Replacing Nouns with Pronouns Powerpoint Game
I love working with the 8 parts of speech, especially if I use School House Rock videos. To help assess want students learned (and to have a bit of fun) I made this wonderful game for my students to play.
This is great for a quick review since there are only 10 questions and is multiple choice. This is great for centers as students can take turns answering questions or you can use it a whole class review. I would choose a random student by drawing popsicle sticks and they choose a question.
Sometimes my students would go in order. Other times, they would pick a random number. Best part: once they’ve answered the question, it disappeared and I don’t have to worry about whether they’ve already answered it.
Each question gives students a sentence. The noun to be replaced is highlighted in yellow. Students must decided from 3 answer choices is best to replace the noun. X’s appear for wrong answers and checks appear for correct answers.
You can get this game here: Replacing Nouns with Pronouns PPT Game. You can also check out my other Parts of Speech products. Mac and PC versions are included! It even works on ipads and tablets, making it great for 1:1 classrooms.

Today’s $1 Deal is for 2nd grade teachers. 2nd grade holds a special place in my heart. It was the grade I taught before I had to leave to classroom and I miss it so much. One topic I loved doing with them was measuring. Hence, this game was born!
In this “Find the Star” game, students answer 25 questions to find stars hidden behind 25 blocks. There are 7 stars to find and students have to answer questions correctly to be able to choose a square.
When it comes to measuring, the first thing comes to mind is tools. Students are measuring different lengths of nails. Sizes range from 1 inch to 12 inches.
For anyone who uses the Metric system, let me know and I will make a Centimeters version for you.

Today’s freebie is about compound words. A new topic to try. My 2nd graders loved playing puzzles games with compound words and since my “Who Am I” Community Helpers game is a big hit, I thought I’d try it with compound words.
In this game, students are given 3 clues to an object that is a compound word. Some words are easy while others are a little tricky. This will be a great game fore review or circle time.
If you’d like me to make a full game for this, let me know.
