Social Studies Review Game

As you parents might have guessed, we have been learning more about the history of our great state of Michigan in Social Studies lately. In order to review all of the facts, key terms, and dates that we have learned throughout the chapter, we played a game called "Quiz, Quiz, Trade".


















In this game, each student is given a card with both a question and the answer to the question. Students walk around the classroom with their cards and ask another student their question. Once both students have answered the question (sometimes students would need small hints in order to get the correct answer) the students swap their card and find another person to ask their NEW question.



















Students LOVED this game because it not only allowed them to review what they had learned about Michigan, it also gave them a chance to move around the classroom while chatting with their classmates about what they have learned. We will definitely be using this fun, new review strategy in the future!

  2. I love interactive learning! I think this is a very important form of learning in our classrooms. A large percentage of students learn best this way.

  4. Great graphics and an interesting story. The map is absolutely huge which is nice and the open world let's you play and explore the game at your own pace. Overall, it's a great game. A must buy in my opinion especially if you enjoyed other entries in the Far Cry series.
