Baby It's Cold Outside! Here in the state of Iowa, we are having a hard time reaching 0 degrees Fahrenheit! All the schools were closed yesterday due to -40 below wind chills. They had a late start today since we may reach 1 degree! Here is a photo of sun dogs taken from our backyard.

Matching Mittens (or Gloves)
This game requires minimal prep work. You may purchase mittens for everyone in your classroom. The dollar store is a great resources. You may purchase enough for one mitten per child or a pair for each child. It is best if you have several different ones. Most families have tons floating around their home, so you could also ask for each family to donate one pair. It doesn't matter if they are worn or have holes. :)
After you have enough gloves or mittens, hide them around the room. You will need to decide if you want students to find one individual glove or their own pair. If the students are to find only one glove, then they must find the other student with the matching glove.
If you prefer less competitive games, then have the students work as a whole team trying to beat the clock using an online timer or this fun one from Amazon.
--------------------------------
Here are some additional game options:
1. Create a graph to chart how long the game takes the students.
2. Allow students to talk and help each other.
3. Do not allow students to talk and help each other.
4. Do not allow students to talk, but allow hand gestures.
5. Have students find as many pairs as they can. The student with the most pairs wins.
6. Designate a special pair of gloves. The student(s) that find the pair win special honors.
7. If you have students who will struggle with this game, allow them to hide the mittens and monitor the timer instead of searching for the mittens.
8. Hide a task card in each mitten. Students must answer the question in their mitten. Here are some winter task cards you may like to hide in the mittens:

This winter craftivity would also be a calmer indoor recess activity.
