Description
These fun and engaging middle-school ELA games are the perfect way to review concepts with your students during class.
Days between vacations, picture days, half days, ends of the quarter -- they don't have to be a waste of time! I love to use these days to review concepts we've learned throughout the year in a fun and engaging way. This bundle includes 27 resources (40+ games) that I use to either review or introduce ELA concepts with my students. My students love the change of pace, and I love how much they learn!
Use these games to introduce new concepts, review standards you have recently covered, or brush up on topics you haven't touched in a while.
Save your sanity with over 40 low-prep activities for your middle-school class.
Just print, cut, and go!
