I Have, Who Has? Alphabet Game
2 Ways to Play!
Pass out the cards to students. Have them sit in a circle. Pick a child to go first. They stand and read their card. (Your students may not be able to read yet, but they quickly catch on to how the game is played and "read" their cards accordingly.) The child with the correct answer stands up and reads their card. Play continues until all cards are read. To make this a REAL challenge, time the students and have them try to break their own record!
