Easter Egg Puzzle Shapes Template

 The Puzzle Den - Easter Egg Puzzle Shapes Template

Today, I have some Easter Egg Puzzle Shapes to share with you.  I had in mind a little antonyms matching game to make with these, but I thought blank ones might be more useful for teachers and moms.  You can download the blank version as a .jpg file, then print them off and write in whatever your students need to practice.

Alternatively, you can download a pre-filled version with the antonyms in them already.  This version requires Microsoft Word.  I have the 2013 version, so I don't know that it will work with other versions, but I have hopes!  In any case, if you download this version, you can edit the text boxes inside the eggs to show whatever you like.

If you download the Word version, it will look wonky.  It will open in protected view, and you will have to enable editing to get the formatting to straighten out.  A button will appear at the top of the page that will say "Enable Editing."  Once you push that, you can then edit the text boxes inside the eggs.

If you don't have Word, you can still download the .jpg blank version and import it into your favorite text editor.  This way you can also create text on top of the eggs and don't have to hand write them.

Some ideas for egg matching games:
     Math practice (5+10, 15)
     Synonyms (jump, hop)
     Color names and objects that are that color (red, apple)
     Clothes and body parts (socks, feet)
     States and capitals (Richmond, Virginia)
     Foreign Language practice (hola, hello)
     Anything that comes in pairs

Also, try printing these on pastel sheets of paper for a more Eastery feel.  I recommend cardstock for these puzzles.

If this gives you any trouble, feel free to shout out.  I can try to help.  This is the first time I've done an editable document, so it may not go totally smoothly.

Enjoy!
