Pots of Gold: Word Families for March

I got SO EXCITED when I saw these little black pots that I could use in a word family manipulative.  I found them at Party City, and I decided to use green puffy paint to write the different word families on them.  Then I spray painted pogs (anyone remember those???) gold, and then made this pots of gold game!

 Here are the pogs spray painted gold.

Here are the pots that I puffy painted the word families on.

 Then I wrote 5 words for each word family on the gold coins.


The students' job was to put the coins in whatever word family it belongs to.



After all of the words are separated, the student would record the words onto this worksheet.  (I will provide it tomorrow, it is on my work computer)

    This is such a great activity! I love how creative you were in making the pot and gold. Has it been a popular activity in class?

    Margaret, They really LOVE it! And because I made so many different word families, they can do a different pair each week!

    An ideal family is an extraordinary illustration of the entire society. Father, Mother, kids every one of them need to work to assemble an ideal family. Assuming any of them fizzled, the entire family fell. parent help center

    So creative and nice task for students! I think that each tutor should prepare for their lectures in such a way, and students will be interested in learning your subject! I also try to enhance my clients to learn something, not just simply prepare for them papers. Of course, my task mainly revolves around the preparation of qualified non-plagiarism papers which you may find at freshessay https://freshessay.net/ for my customer, but at the same time I try to help them to understand the things which I conduct instead of them and I try to do it in an interesting way. Your idea with a game coind will be nice for me and I will try to do this one on clients who study English and ask me for English class help
