Choosing a partner doesn’t have to be a daunting task for teachers and students alike. These fun cards help students “find” their own partner randomly.
Simply hand out a card to each child then they can search for the classmate with the matching one! Don’t want it to be random, place a card face down on each student’s desk before beginning so you have control over who is partnered with who but your student’s still believe it is quite random.
While organising your class, you can also use this as an opportunity to reinforce taught concepts, in this case - compound words (two words which when combined create a new word).
But you don’t just have to use these for class organization! Add them to your literacy center rotations as a fun memory match game!
Here’s what’s included -
2 different sets of 30 pick a partner cards (15 pairs per set) featuring compound words (image + text) - 8 to an A4 page
