It is often difficult to get a game set
up and play it to completion during
a class period.
This can be frustrating.

Thumb Ball
Students sit in a circle
or on top of their
desks. The beach ball is
tossed from student to
student. When a
student catches it,
note where his/her
right thumb is placed.
That is the term for
them to recognize
or solve.
Alphabet letters can be used for identification, or
as a cue for language activities, such as naming
an adjective that starts with the letter under the
thumb. Numerals utilize both thumbs… choose a
function (addition, multiplication, etc.) before
the game starts and apply to the two numbers.
Jenga Rhythm: Students will be able to
read rhythms. I bought several Jenga
games and I drew various rhythms on
them. Students set the game up like a
normal Jenga game. They use the dice to
determine the player order. The first
player pulls one Jenga block out using only
one hand. Then, they read the rhythm out
loud to the group and the group echos it
back. Next, they place the Jenga block on
the top of the stack. You could have
students keep score, but mine are content
with just playing without keeping score.

… that this nation shall
have a new birth of
freedom; and that this
government of the
people, by the people,
for the people, shall not
perish from the earth.”
Yesterday, December
7th, 1941 — a date
which will live in infamy
— the United States of
America was suddenly
and deliberately
attacked …
I have a dream that one
day this nation will rise
up and live out the true
meaning of its creed:
“We hold these truths to
be self-evident, that all
men are created equal.”
And so, my fellow
Americans, ask not what
your country can do for
you; ask what you can
do for your country.
The name of American,
which belongs to you, in
your national capacity,
must always exalt the
just pride of Patriotism,
“this nation should
commit itself to
achieving the goal,
before the decade is out,
of landing a man on the
moon and returning him
safely to the earth.”
“Mr. Gorbachev,
open this gate.
Mr. Gorbachev —
Mr. Gorbachev, tear
down this wall!”
We, the people of the
United States, in order
to form a more perfect
Union…
I know not what course
others may take; but as
for me, give me liberty
or give me death!”
