A bundle of bottle cap games in one file that keeps on growing!
Our very new Bottle Cap Center Games for any Word List BUNDLE file has been discounted for the next week.
I wanted to develop games that are hands-on and that engage the whole body, that are fun, highly engaging and meet the needs of the body kinaesthetic learners and that could be used for any word list.
I wanted to have a few games that were ready to go and quick to prepare. After my big brain dump of ideas involving activities with items from around the house, that was my Summer Reading Activities, I grabbed a pen and paper and had another brain explosion.
I began with just one game, the Roll a Lid, which is in my Summer Reading Activities file and then cam up with Egg Carton Shake, Bottle Cap Balance, Flip your Lid and Caught Out. As I began to create them, I thought of more and more hands-on games!
I told my husband what I was doing and he came up with about ten of the games. This was a good thing as they are more physical and not what I would have thought of. He came up with such games as On the Edge, Ice Hockey, Rock, Paper, Scissors, I Don’t Have It and a few others that I will add to the bundle over the next few months.
Please note: these games are not Minute it to Win it games.
By purchasing this file, you will then be able to download the new additions (and I have a long list of new games) by going to the ‘My Purchases‘ tab on your TpT page and hitting download. I aim to add a few each month, so be sure to follow this blog to be in the know.
The games have all been tested and edited and revised and re-edited!
Please note that you will need to explain and demonstrate how to play each game with your students and K-1 students will probably need guidance when playing in groups.
Your bundle has 31 games and each has a cover, a teacher instruction page, a student instruction page and two differentiated record sheets for the different levels of writing in your class.
Here is how I have organized the games.
You can use these games with any word list or even letters and sounds.
To get you started I have deigned Dolch Words – Pre-Primer to Grade Three and Fry’s Grade One to Three list as a free download.
You can write on the bottle caps easily with a permanent marker and wipe off with an eraser. Here are the options for you.
Your free word lists file contains
both Dolch and Fry posters,
lists for teachers and
assessment (check-list) pages
and Avery labels
These will come in handy of you choose to use HFW and sight words for your games. You could also use vocabulary focus words, spelling words, color words, number words, personal words, topic words, holiday or seasonal words… oh the list goes on.
The Dolch and Fry word lists PDF also includes filled in templates for Avery Round Labels 5293. Which if you don’t want to use a permanent marker you can print and stick these labels on.
Click here to download your free file.
I will be posting more about organizing your bottle caps and bottle cap games as well as any new games that are added to the file in our TpT store.
Be sure to follow us here so that you are updated with our new additions.
or via email (see above to your right).
Please contact me should you have any questions.

Wow! I have a lot of bottle caps, now i know what to do with them!
I begin student teaching in a week and I'll be working with my team on planning math lessons for the whole grade. I have been saving bottle caps for quite some time now, having seen some cute ideas but not sure what I wanted to do with them…now I have lots of ideas!
