Explore 7 Land Use Changes 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 Science.
- In The BIG TERRIBLE Game, every team answers every question and earns unpredictable positive or negative points while trying to finish closest to zero.
- In GRUDGEBALL, teams answer questions to fire on their opponents’ ships, then make baskets to earn even more shots.
- TRASHKETBALL™ gets teams racing to answer correctly, then rewards them with shots at the trash can to score points.
- BUMP gets teams racing to answer correctly, then gives them a chance to score points by knocking other teams off the platform.
- SCOOT combines review with movement as students rotate between desks and work their way through a set of topic-specific task cards.
- FRAZZLED keeps students guessing as correct answers reveal surprise points, wrong answers can reward the other team, and bombs can wipe out a score.
- 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.
Review doesn’t have to mean another worksheet, especially when a game can get the whole class involved. You’ll see students lean into the questions, debate answers with their teammates, and hang on every result as the game unfolds. Play review games regularly and students start preparing for them, because just like sports, they know being ready gives them a better chance to win.
