Classroom Games for Kids

Whether you’re in the classroom or learning virtually, teaching the standards in engaging ways is a common goal. Classroom games for kids are a great way to accomplish this.

Games make learning fun! In fact, oftentimes students don’t even realize they are learning or practicing skills when they are playing a game. The following games would work perfectly as both in classroom games or distance learning games.

Classroom Games for Kids: Hide & Seek

Hide and Seek can be played in a pocket chart or digitally. These classroom games for kids come preprogrammed with math and literacy skills. Students identify, read, and solve when playing Hide and Seek.

Hide & Seek (Pocket Chart)

In a pocket chart, simply print the cards, place them in the pocket chart, and hide the secret picture behind one to three of the cards. Call on a student to come up and complete the task before looking behind the card to see if they found the hidden picture. Hide one picture to make the game pass more quickly or three pictures to lengthen and allow more students a chance to play. These games works whole class, in small groups, and as a literacy station.

Hide & Seek (Digital)

Digitally, you can share your screen and use this as a distance learning game for Zoom or display it on your classroom interactive whiteboard. With the digital version, the cards magically disappear when clicked to reveal a blank space or a hidden image. Even better, both sets include editable cards to meet all of your needs.

Classroom Games for Kids: Sight Word Games

Sight words are another important component of reading instruction in many early childhood classrooms. Repeated exposure and practice help students to recognize and learn these sight words. These sight words games are a great way to provide this opportunity.

Played like Hangman, Build a House, Build a Monster, Donut Words, and Food Builder make great classroom games for kids. Just like Hide & Seek, these sight words games can be distance learning games or in classroom games. Depending on the students’ level, slides have pre-primer or primer words on them for support. If no support is needed there are also blank slides. As students guess letters the pen tool is used to write on the screen. If the letter guessed is not in the word part of the image will appear. The object of the sight word games is to guess the word before the whole picture is revealed.

Classroom Games for Kids: I Spy

Take I Spy, a fun childhood game and add an educational twist with I Spy Games for Distance Learning or the Classroom. Print out the I Spy slides to serve as mats. Cover the pictures with manipulatives or laminate and circle with dry erase marker. To save paper or use as a virtual learning game display the slides to play.

Use I Spy to practice colors, letters and sounds, blends, digraphs, and more!

Classroom Games for Kids: Movement Games

Movement activities for kindergarten make great classroom games for kids. Kids always need to move and get their wiggles out but this year it is essential. Students may also need to work with the same partner/stable pod which in classroom games allow for. Each gameboard or spinner has different movements mixed in. If a movement is spun or landed on the players count and move and then continue to play.
