How do we play?
Open the PowerPoint and choose the game you want.
Drag the groundhog behind one of the objects. Click “present.”
Kids guess a letter or word by reading it. Click on the top of the object to make it disappear! It’s like magic! When the groundhog appears, you have a winner!
You can easily play again by moving the groundhog to a new spot or picking a new game slide!
You can play this game in Google, BUT it does not have the same animation features as PowerPoint.
Here are the steps to play in Google Slides:
Choose the game slide you want and duplicate it.
Hide the groundhog behind one of the stumps.
Keep the slide in edit mode and project or share your screen with students.
As students guess, delete the stumps they choose.
Is this product editable?
Yes, You can edit the games to add your own words, numbers, letters, or images.
Is this available in other languages?
This resource is only available in English at this time.
If I click on the words, it changes to the next slide. What’s wrong?
You need to click on the top of the stumps to make them disappear. The text boxes are not animated so they won’t disappear. This allows you to keep track of the words or letters you’ve already guessed.
