How to create your own Connections-style game to share with your class or with friends!

 Yesterday I shared the popular Connections game from the NY Times. If you click here, it will take you to a site that allows you to create and share your own Connections-style game with your students.

If you are looking for a way to get started, look below for the prompt I put into ChatGPT.

Can you create four groups of four words four groups where users find common threads between the words for elementary aged students.

Group 1: Apple Banana Cherry Orange Common Thread: All are types of fruit. Group 2: Dog Cat Rabbit Fish Common Thread: All are common pets. Group 3: Chair Table Desk Couch Common Thread: All are types of furniture. Group 4: Sun Moon Star Planet Common Thread: All are found in space. These groupings help students to think about categories and characteristics that these items share, enhancing their skills in grouping and classification.

Embedded below is a 2 minute and 5 second YouTube tutorial.

Take care,
