What do you do with students after your test is done?

I have a half hour left with all of my classes and my test is done. I also gave out a worksheet to help review information on their unit test next week.<br><br>The kids did better this semester, but there is still about 3-5 kids who finish the test in less than 15 minutes...<br><br>How to you keep kids occupied once they have finished everything I have to give them? How do you keep them happy and not complaining?<br><br>We also have a no phone rule in class.<br><br>Ok so here are a few of my ideas:<br>- Color by number<br>- Word searches<br>- Word searches with a spin<br>- Crossword puzzles<br>- Kahoot<br>- Kahoot review games<br>- *Play cards (not everyone has a deck and it is difficult to get a lot of decks)<br>- *Play uno (not everyone has a deck and it is difficult to get a lot of decks)<br>- Play math games on my math program<br>- Bookshelf<br><br>I have a lot of english learner students and color by number, word searches, and crossword puzzles are not accessible to them.<br><br>I have tried Kahoot, but some kids will finish their games and they do not have a Kahoot or whatever to play. <br><br>I do not like the idea of a card/unit game because it is hard to manage and set up.<br><br>I am starting a student bookshelf - but we need to get some more books.<br><br>All in all, I am very frustrated with kids finishing with nothing to do. I do not want to tell them to just sit there, I do not want to tell them to "find something to do," I want to make sure that my students are happy and entertained for the last 30 minutes of class in case they finish.
