Rhyming Charades

Grade Level: K-2nd grades

Purpose: Students will act out rhyming words.

Procedure: The teacher has the students stand in a circle. The teacher states a starting sentence, I am thinking of a word that rhymes with bat.  The students are not allowed to take a guess by saying the rhyming word aloud; instead the student must step into the middle of the circle and act out the word he/she believes is the answer.  For instance, a student may step in and act like a bat. If that is the word, then that student calls out the next word.  If it is not the word, then another student tries to guess the word until it is guessed properly. If a student cannot think of a word for the others to guess, then the teacher gives the clue again.
