Fun Games and Review Strategies for the Secondary Classroom

I don't know about you, but I love to play games! I love competition so much that I started a monthly game night in my neighborhood. My favorite day to teach is the day before the test - review day! Are you looking for some new and engaging review games for your secondary classroom? Here are some of my favorites!

1. Bingo: I put a twist on this old-time favorite. I don't  call out the term, but I define the term and the students will have to find the correct answer on their bingo sheet! On the back of the sheet is a list of definitions. Once the term is chosen, the students write the term next to the definition. They can then take the review sheet home to study.

2. The SNAKE Game: This is one of my favorite's! It's also a great way to find out who is prepared for the test and who is not. In a nutshell, the teacher asks a question and the students write their answer on a piece of paper. For those students who do not have the correct answer, they stay seated. If they do have the correct answer they move to the next available seat. The first to pass their seat is the winner! (You can see more detailed directions HERE)

3. Cold Potato: Just like "hot potato" but opposite! Students sit in a large circle. The teacher asks a question.  As the music plays the students rotate a potato, or a kleenex box, or a ball of tape (whatever works). When the teacher stops the music, the student who is holding the "potato" has a chance to answer the question. If they are correct, they get an extra credit point!

  1. Play free online games at bgames now. Website play games very good! One of the factors that made the game interesting and appealing to players at the time of launch was the existence of the bot system. These are virtual characters, controlled by the control system that participate in real-life battles. Of course, they can not compare intelligence with humans so they are easily defeated. This gives gamers a bigger chance of winning a 100-player battle, which is very unlikely on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on the computer, when all the opponents are real.

    Nevertheless, the manufacturer claims that these "robots" only appear at low levels to stimulate players to play and train. They will disappear when the players level up, have higher level of manipulation.
