Riddle Me This!

Who are we kidding?  We love to have fun in our room!  We have found that a healthy balance of laughter and learning has been the near perfect combination to establishing a light, fun, and positive learning environment for students.

We often have students who come to us with IEP goals that focus on figurative language, which can be a struggle (and not very effective) when taught in isolation.  While we do our best to incorporate figurative language into our daily conversation and relate them to our lessons, it remains a challenge.

We have found that working on figurative language, multiple meaning words, and problem solving is so much more fun when incorporated with a little humor through our weekly joke and riddle posts.  The students in our  room love them.  They have also attracted the attention of other students in the school, allowing us to interact with and be more visible to all students. These jokes and riddles have really motivated the students in our room!

We compiled our favorite jokes and riddles into a product that includes 40 riddle and answer cards, 40 joke and answer cards, Joker and Riddler icons, and "Riddle Me This!" and "Jokin’ Around!" banners.  You can arrange the icons and banners on a wall, bulletin board, or wherever you chose to display them.  We display a new joke and riddle every Monday and post the answers every Friday.  They have very quickly become a hit around the school!  If you'd like to check them out, visit our TpT store here!
