The Monster Box: An easy & Fun Way to Review Vocabulary

With littles it can sometimes be challenging to review vocabulary words in a way that engages them while still being effective. This is especially difficult if they are extra little and have not yet grasped reading. This is where the monster box comes in! 

This super easy activity simply requires you to make a box look like a monster (mouth hole necessary) and to write/type some flashcards with pictures of the vocabulary you want to focus on. After that it's a lot of repetition and a bit of excitement. Every time I do this activity my students are excited that the monster box has returned and they are on the edge of their seats hoping it will be their turn to interact with our monster box and vocabulary words.

I've created a FREE printable giving you directions on how to make and use a monster box with your next vocabulary lesson. It even includes a mouth and eyes for your box. To get it just click the image below!

I hope the monster box is as successful with your kids as it is with mine! In fact, I'd love to see how your monster boxes turn out so comment below with your pics if you like! Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
