Over the last two weeks my kinders have been playing 20 questions
with our twitter pals in Michigan. I got this wonderful idea from an
amazing kinder teacher, Matt B. Gomez. Hop on over to his amazing blog
for other incredible ideas. Matt's Blog After reading his inspirational blog post and
watching his video, I decided to give it a try. Both my class and
our Michigan pals had an absolute blast. I set up a simple google doc and
shared it with the other teacher. We agreed on a time and voila....
amazing, relevant learning with real world application. My kids were
completely engaged in the reading/decoding, asking questions, answering
questions, and learning digital citizenship! We played one week with my
class selecting a Texas Longhorn as our "item" and our friends
asked the questions and then the following week we played again with us asking
the questions. We had to guess a mitten. This was so easy to set up
and do that we are going to try some other versions. Perhaps a game
centered around math next time! I have included the link to a video of my
class answering questions the first time around. Give it a try! You
can find someone in your building or another school or if you have
connections with other teachers in other states. It is so fun & easy.
