Winter Games

This week the K's and 1's heard the story Tacky and the Winter Games by Helen Lester, illustrated by Lynn Munsinger.  We guessed from clues in the story that this book was inspired by the Olympic Winter Games! Then we played games in partners: Snowboard Slide or Ski Lift Shuffle. We rolled dice and either added or subtracted the number to reach the finish line. (These games were created by Nancy VandenBerge and are on her blog.)

Here are some Grade 1 students enjoying the game.  What board games do you enjoy playing? Tell us in the comments below.
