I have created cards for something called Category Words. Instead of wasting time during transitions, you can use the cards to play category words with your students. You tell them 3 words for one category, and they try to come up with a word that would fit with the category. Download the sample to see some examples. I print the cards on cardstock, cut them out, then put them on a ring so I can access them easily. The dowload includes over 100 categories for you to easily chose from. The last page contains blank cards in case you would like to add more of your own.

Just printed and laminated these cards. Can't wait to use them with my second graders this fall. Will use them at the end of the day while waiting for the bus and also in a small center activity. Great!

I was looking for a fun way to teach these upper level thinking skills. These kids are going to need them when they take the Texas Starr test.
Thanks

Thank you! I use to have the students count etc between transitions but it would get loud and some students would get distracted. These are great because they can think in their head. I love these and can't wait to see if you create more creative thinking items!

These cards are THE perfect way to extend the kids thinking while they are transitioning or when you have a minute or two between lessons!
