Re: 4th grade game advice

[Guest guest]

Hi, Debi:

First of all I had to figure out what gened is! (I'm Canadian) Was it general

education? Then I googled fourth grade games, and got lots of math exercises.

So then I tried thinking, even though my brain is on pause today. I

brainstormed a bunch of games that had worked for us in the past, and realised

half of them were from the PBS show Zoom. I headed over there, and sure enough

they list the games there! Most were submitted by this age group so will be a

big hit with them, even if they have played before. A personal favourite is

" Excuse me, what are you doing? " It even worked with a mixed age group of

varying ability levels.

I get the jitters before these, too. Once you get started you're fine.

Thanks, Dana. Yes, I meant general education. sorry! Thanks for the

links. Jess is getting to that age where she embarasses easily, I

wanna make sure I don't do anything to make her feel bad.
