Explore 5 Total Cost of Items review games designed by a teacher to engage students and reinforce curriculum. Turn Math review into a game and give students a reason to get excited about showing what they know.
- The BIG TERRIBLE Game gets up to eight teams answering every question while unpredictable positive and negative points keep everyone guessing until the end.

- BUMP gets teams racing to answer correctly, then gives them a chance to score points by knocking other teams off the platform.

- FRAZZLED turns review into an unpredictable competition where teams win points, lose points, steal points, and try to avoid the dreaded bomb.
Turning review into a game is one of my favorite ways to get students participating without making practice feel like more work. 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. 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.
The excitement is great, but the research is even better—educational games have been linked to stronger achievement, retention, and motivation. See the research.
