Summer time is a great time to create learning games.  This is a vocabulary review game I made with a file folder and those cute and colorful letters you can buy to make posters.  Students decide on what they are going to do before playing.  Students can review vocabulary from any unit.  Kids start by putting their piece on any letter.  Then they roll the die to move.  When they land on a letter, they say a vocabulary word that begins with that letter and give the definition.  This is also a fun game to practice similes.  When students land on a letter, they create a simile using an animal that begins with that letter.
