Say what? Onomatopoeia humor

My students were recently completing my Zombies Paired Passages Activity. As I was monitoring the students answers, I told a student that she needed to be more descriptive about exactly how a zombie sounds. She told me she had no idea how to describe how a zombie sounds. I told her to try to think of what one sounds like in her head and then figure out what onomatopoeia that would be.

One of my other students popped her hand up and said, "I would say that it sounds like a student who doesn't know the answer to a question the teacher just asked. Ummmm Ummmm Ummmm!"

Lemme tell you this had me rolling...and still does actually!

Lego Rewards for VIPKid or GoGoKid

So I was looking at the facebook groups today and I saw a lady who's daughter made this for the GogoKid lesson "Apple and Banana" and I thought it was just great! : Every slide (or every time a student does a good job) you could add a few more pieces to creation and have them guess what it is going to be! I started looking up other simple creations that my students always talk about and compiled a short list below! (Each picture is clickable for instructions on how to make them) I am sure that if you have children you already have these Legos rolling around in your house somewhere causing havoc on your feet. However, if you are like me and don't have kids yet, you might need a little bit of a starter kit! Click the images below to see them on Amazon.

Teaching Point of View with Video Games

I was looking for new ways to introduce point of view and I stumbled across a GREAT idea! Using video games! There are tons of video games in different points of view.
