The students continued to rotate through the group.
The student that read the card got to play the game. Then another student read the next task card! They answered as a group & recorded on their sheet. The student that read the question aloud got to play the game. Then they recorded their answers on their worksheet. The students worked together to answer the question. One student started and read the first task card question aloud to the group. The students were in groups of about 4-5. We had a shortened day on our Glow Games Day (of course) and I only had 35 minutes to work with! Between giving instructions, transition time, and cleaning up, I could only allow 5 minutes! In my normal 47 minute class period, I would have about 6 or 7 minutes per station. I gave my students 5 minutes per station. My mom would call out an organelle & the students would point to the correct part on the cell! So in total there were 5 stations that the students rotated between. At this station, the students did not complete any task cards. I split the task cards up between 4 stations so there were 7 questions at every station the students would answer! I ended up creating a 5th station that my mom was in charge of.
I created 28 task cards with questions, analogies, and pictures of the organelles! (Coming soon to TPT) The students all had recording sheets where they would write their answers to the task cards. I start with task cards for the content that I am wanting to review with my students! We are in our cells unit & the students have been reviewing the functions of cell organelles. I have seen Glow Games done in many different ways before by teachers on Instagram and even some of my friends! Glow Games also used to be a session at Get Your Teach on that Chris & Wade used to do! What I love about Glow Games is that it can be done for literally ANY content, subject, or grade level!! How I do Glow Games is pretty much just like normal task cards, but in a glow in the dark room & with giant games added.

My district did NOT pay for one item that I used for Glow Games! With that being said, I 100% would not have been able to do Glow Games without parent donations, purchasing items myself over a few years & reusing them, and borrowing games from other teachers! I am 100% aware that Glow Games can get a bit pricey, but I will be sharing my tips & tricks on how to keep the cost down at the end! OVERVIEW: The number one most asked question during & after Glow Games was, “Did you pay for all of this yourself?” The answer is a bit complicated. Thank you for always supporting my side hustle :)* COST:īefore I dive into the content & the items that I used for Glow Games, I wanted to chat about the cost. This means that I make a small commission if you purchase something using my links. *Many of the links in this post are affiliate links.
