Mrs. Giesey's Matter Game Warm-Up! Each student gets in the middle with a ball and has to answer a question regarding matter. Classmates have to cheer them on and show support. If a student gets it right, they toss the ball to another student.. If a student gets an answer wrong they run in a circle and have to do a silly dance as a class. This is a fun way to get up and get some fresh air while learning!!
