I found a great idea for an end of the year vocabulary game called Snowball Fight on the Third Grade Curriculum Blog.
Have your students each choose two pieces of white paper. On one paper they write a word, on the other they write the definition to the word.
Crumple the papers up and have a snowball fight for a set amount of time. The third grade curriculum blog suggested setting a timer for 30 secs.
Once the fight is over everyone has to pick up one of the snowballs and find their partner. I.e. the students who find a word have to locate the definition and the students who find the definition have to find the word.
You can also prepare the words in advance if you want to review certain vocabulary words.
