Let customers speak for us
This resource was exactly what I needed! The directions were clear, engaging, and easy for my students to follow. The visuals and activities kept them interested, and it aligned perfectly with the standards. I appreciated that it worked well for both whole-group and small-group instruction. Definitely a time-saver and worth it!
Well thought out resource and useful in my classroom. Thank you!
My students love a good competition, and they loved this game!
Great resource to use as a unit review! Students enjoyed playing.
Students had so much fun with this activity. It was challenging, but the fun aspect truly engaged the students.
My students really enjoyed this review game. We ended up splitting into four teams so that more students were involved on each question and then each team could pick who they wanted to assign their points to. We were able to use the slides for this and we had a lot of fun. My students have asked if this can be our next review game too!
We use this during small groups to help with identifying prime and composite numbers.
A great resource for my seventh grade math students!
Fun way to practice input and output with third graders!
Highly engaging way to reinforce basic robotic concepts
This game was so fun! My students loved using the as their review before their unit test! I also liked how I was able to add some other questions to help them prepare for their unit test.

Explore 7 George Washington as First President review games designed by a teacher to engage students and reinforce curriculum. When students are having fun, they forget they are reviewing, making games a great way to practice Social Studies.
- TRASHKETBALL™ gets teams racing to answer correctly, then rewards them with shots at the trash can to score points.
- The BIG TERRIBLE Game gets up to eight teams answering every question while unpredictable positive and negative points keep everyone guessing until the end.
- Keep students on their toes with FRAZZLED, where every answer can reveal points, help the opposing team, or uncover a bomb that resets the score to zero.
- In BUMP, correct answers earn students shots at the platform, where they can score even more points by bumping off opposing teams.
- In GRUDGEBALL, teams answer questions to fire on their opponents’ ships, then make baskets to earn even more shots.
- The TERRIBLE Game makes review wonderfully terrible as teams answer questions, uncover unpredictable scores, and use positive and negative points to get closest to zero.
- Get students moving with SCOOT, where they travel from desk to desk answering task cards and recording their answers along the way.
Review doesn’t have to mean another worksheet, especially when a game can get the whole class involved. Before long, students are cheering, discussing answers, and asking to play again—even when their team didn’t win. Once students know another game is coming, winning becomes a reason to pay attention, practice, and make sure they’re ready for the next one.
Games may feel like fun to students, but research shows they can be serious learning tools, with measurable benefits for achievement, retention, and engagement. See the research.
