The Popsicle sticks game is a fun way for students to practice vocabulary. To make a game you will need one Popsicle stick per word. Write one word on each stick. On the tip of one stick, draw a red dot. You will also need four sets of the words and definitions (one for each member of the group who will be playing). Place the Popsicle sticks in a plastic cup labeled with whatever story/skill/root-word/etc. is being covered by those sticks.
