Ditch the Abbreviation Worksheets and Play a Game!

Make learning grade level abbreviations a team activity for your students!

To play, each student gets a card. They will listen for the abbreviation on their card, and when they hear it, they read their card. Then the turn passes to another player. Play continues until the last card in the set is read.

Students will show their ability to identify, read, and spell grade level abbreviations with this activity.

Help students who need help understanding the concepts by practicing the skill using one of our helpful teaching presentations.

Allow students to use an anchor chart or classroom poster to reference during the activity.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers
