Communicative or individual activity including 3 different sheets of Alien code, the answer key, and a key to help students with the decoding. 3 sets of Alien code with a key. Leave the code or messages in a 'space ship' for students to find and let them find the other part elsewhere or simply explain that you 'found these strange messages at home'. Students either communicate to decode the messages or work individually, depending what you want them to do the activity for. Sheet 1 are motivational 'fortune cookie' style messages. Sheet 2 include a treasure hunt based on 5 clues. Sufficiently generic to work in any school. Sheet 3 is a letter from the aliens requesting help. Students decode the message and then the teacher produces a list of whatever the students need to do in order to help them (for example, complete their maths homework, or find the answer to a difficult question.). The children (grades 2-8) I've done this activity with have loved it!

A fantastic card game for Halloween. Just print out one set of cards for every set of 6-8 students. Suitable for US/UK Players work in a team of 2 and play in a group of 8. Cards are laid out in 2 piles - Action cards and Ghoul cards. On your team's turn, take one card from each pack and follow the instructions [eg...Sculpt a witch with a blindfold, Act a vampire with a puppet (one player is the puppet master, the other the puppet)] The other teams guess. The first team to guess your ghoul correctly gets a point and you get a point. The team with the most points when the game ends is the winner. 2 versions depending on the size of cards you want. Either print out version 1 and cut the cards out, or use the full page version and adjust your printer settings to make half page cards etc.

An excellent game to get children communicating and having fun, while using Christmas vocab to get into the spirit of the season.

Use your partner as a puppet to act an Elf? Who knows? What everyone can be sure of, though, is that it will be bags of fun!
