Fiction and Non-Fiction Roll and Match
This game is a great way to compare if objects are real or fictitious. Students roll a dice and decide if the object they land on is fiction (imagined) or non-fiction (real). A great two player, or small group game that is perfect for literacy rotations. Students will enjoy colouring in the game board as they go.
Use in literacy rotations or as a fast finisher task.
