Memory Match

The end of the school year is fast approaching and I have begun preparing some review games for my daughters to play during the summer. Memory match is one of my favorite games to use to review skills. My daughters don’t even realize they are learning, they think they are just finding matches. You can use this game to review so many skills. I decided to create a sight word memory match game.

Materials

Wood circles ( any shape)

Mod podge

X-ACTO knife

Scrapbook paper

How To

An adult should make this activity.

Cut your scrapbook paper into squares.

Paint a layer of mod podge to one side of the wood circle and place the scrapbook paper square on top. Gently press and smooth out the paper to prevent wrinkles. Set them to the side to dry.

While you are waiting for the paper to dry, type up and print out all the words you would like to include in your game. Cut them out and place them to the side for later.

Flip your circles over and carefully cut off the excess scrapbook paper using an X-ACTO knife.

Paint a layer of mod podge to the unfinished side of the circle and place one of the words you printed out on top. Paint another layer of mod podge over the word.

Once everything is dry, flip your circles back over to the side that shows the scrapbook paper and paint a layer of mod podge over it. This will give your game a finished look while protecting the paper.

If you give this game a try, comment down below and let me know which skill you reviewed.
