Review doesn’t have to mean another worksheet, especially when a game can get the whole class involved. Students who normally sit back during review often jump into the action, working with their teammates and getting caught up in every question and result. Over time, that excitement carries beyond the game itself, as students start preparing because they want their team to have a better chance of winning next time.
The excitement is great, but the research is even better—educational games have been linked to stronger achievement, retention, and motivation. See the research.
