Egg Roulette Engagement Made Easy!

By: Third Grade Triumph
Grades: All Grade Levels K-12


I have a game that will make your students engaged while learning or reviewing content. The game is egg roulette as seen on the Jimmy Fallon show. I just make it academic. The game is simple and can be played with real eggs or if you cannot use real eggs, they're is a game called Egged On that you can order from Amazon for $12.

The game can be used with any content and any grade level! That's the beauty of it. All you need to do is create the questions to suit your class and the content you are teaching or reviewing. The kids will be engaged from the moment you start and they will beg you to keep playing! The link is below!

Speaking of Heroes & Sale Extended

My awesome husband on the day
of the big, bad Teacher of the Year Pep Rally.
Do you remember that song by Bette Midler?
(One of my all-time favorites.) 

Many days we do not FEEL like heroes. Yet, we have a lasting impact on our students. I enjoy hearing about people's favorite teacher from elementary school. I usually ask them what they really liked about that person or their style of teaching. It is fun to know what "sticks" with people when they grow up. I would imagine that those teachers are considered heroes in the minds of these people. 

Speaking of Heroes...
         ...today I am throwing back to one of my posts last November:

"What if Teachers Were Treated Like Football Stars" 
Have you seen that video yet? 

While the video is funny, you may find yourself thinking, "Wow, too bad that's not true!"

Well, good news! I know of a real-life example of teachers being "cheered on" in a BIG way. 

There is a "Teacher of the Year" Pep Rally that is hosted by the Business Leaders of our county. They invite all of the TOTYs from the schools in our district, the city schools, as well as the private schools and colleges that are located in the county. 

It is BIG! It is LOUD! It is FUN!! And...a little bit CRAZY!

To continue reading this post on my personal blog, please click HERE. 
Hopefully you will have a better perspective of how super we teachers really are! You are valued WAY more than any district could afford to pay you. 


Another thing that may put a pep in your step is another day for the "Teachers are Heroes" sale on TPT! That always energizes me!

Here are the details:
Most stores are on sale...if not all.
My store is 20% off.
Extra 10% off your total order at checkout when you enter this code: HEROES

It is a great time to stock up on some of those awesome resources that you have had your eye on!

Have a super day!
