Description
Looking for a lively, hands-on way to teach syllables? Say hello to Knockout—a high-energy literacy game that gets kids up, moving, and practicing without even noticing they’re learning! As students work on identifying syllables, they’ll try to knock out other players and stay in the game. It’s quick, exciting, and an awesome way to strengthen phonological awareness while having an absolute blast. Get ready for constant engagement and tons of rhyming fun with Knockout!
A QUICK LOOK AT KNOCKOUT™ & HOW IT IS PLAYED
1 – Divide your class into 2 single-file lines
2 – Display the first slide
3 – The player at the front of his/her line faces off against the player from the other team: the first player to answer his/her question correctly wins and returns to the end of the line!
4 – The player who does not win goes to sit on the team “bench” to cheer on the team!
✋ BUT WAIT: That’s not all.
If a player faces these slides, the following could happen:
✅ Double Free Pass: Both players automatically get to stay in the game!
✅ Double Knockout™: Both players are automatically out!
✅ Knockout™/Free Pass: One player leaves, one stays!
✅ Pick a Pal: Choose a player from the bench to return to the game!

◼️HERE’S WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT KNOCKOUT◼️
My students love Knockout games-we started with alphabet knockout and now we’ve gotten a collection of the games. It’s a great way to reinforce topics they learned and keeps them engaged. I plan to continue to purchase the knockout games – as per my students requests 🙂
