Here is a resource from my Learning Disabilities tool bag. I used it when I taught Resource class years ago and I still use it today in my elementary Media Center with all the kiddos! This is a self correcting puzzle template which is great for making your own MATCHING GAMES. For example, put a math problem on the left side of the puzzle and the answer on the right. Write up eight of these, cut them out, and you have a matching puzzle game. Good for things like geometry shapes/names, upper/lowercase letters, science definitions, word families. It makes a great Center addition. Make colorful copies available for your students in Center time and let them create their own games. 8 puzzle cards in 2 set sizes for you to choose from. *Set 1* 41/2 inches x 8 inches (2 to a page). *Set 2* 3 3/4 x 2 1/4 (8 cards to a page)
