Fiddle Sticks

Fiddle Sticks – Undoubtedly the BEST game ever!! I’m not exaggerating.  Fiddle Sticks really is the best activity ever, especially for practicing skills such as sight word recognition and math facts.  Invented over 30 years ago by my friend, Jill, as a fun way to practice articulation drills, the activity has been adapted by teachers to work on many different skills.  Watch my video below to see how to make and the game of Fiddle Sticks! My teacher friend, Deb, has made a set of Fiddle Sticks for each of the 9 lists (25 words each) of the Dolch 220 Sight Word list.  She differentiates this activity by having groups of students play the game for the list that they

Welcome to Make, Take & Teach

Hello and welcome to the Make, Take & Teach blog. I am so happy that you stopped by.  I started Make, Take & Teach about 7 years ago with the introduction of the Teacher Intervention Kits.  My goal was, and still is, to provide teachers with multi-sensory activities that align with assessments commonly administered in schools to meet the needs of all learners within their classroom.  MT&T has grown over the years to provide activities in digital formats which can be purchased through the MT&T website and through Teachers Pay Teachers. I started my career as a Speech/Language Pathologist and have held several positions since that time including teaching a preschool classroom for students with severe language impairments and Autism

Holiday and Winter Themed 4-In-A-Row Game Boards

I love the 4-In-A-Row game for practicing sight words.  The game makes for an awesome activity for your literacy centers.  It can easily be differentiated as you choose which game board to use depending on the level of your students.   To play the game, all that is needed is a game board and colored chips or erasers (I love using seasonal erasers to add a bit of holiday spirit).  Two students play the game and each take turns reading a word and placing their marker on the word.  The first player to have 4 of their colored chip or erasers in a row wins the game.  Players need to be sure to block their opponent as they are trying to get their 4-In-A-Row.  It’s so simple, and
