Today, we had a wonderful time celebrating Halloween! I love all the Halloween freebies going around, including the WONDERFUL October Fun Facts by Denise at
SUNNY DAYS. I was thinking about how to use these fun facts with my class. Somehow I got to thinking about Price Is Right and my favorite game was Punch-a-Bunch, where they punch a board and get the money that is inside. So I made my own punch-a-bunch board for my kiddos. Each student got to punch one, and inside they found candy and also a fun fact that we read to the class and discussed. It was so much fun!
To make the Punch board, I used styrofoam bowls, 2 layers of tissue paper, and tape. I taped the bowls to a science display board. It worked perfectly.
***However, if I were to do this again....I'd use the thicker Chinet brand bowls, they could be reused that way. You could of course use this idea for a review game for a test in any content area or skill.
