Description
RECOMMENDED FOR:
- Grades 7-11
- School libraries, US History classes
- Want to use it with younger students? I think this game will work well with Grades 4-6, but I have not personally used it that young. The entire game is multiple choice, and it requires no prior knowledge of the presidents. The game is fun, and I think younger students will enjoy it, too!
NEEDED TO OPEN AND PLAY THE GAME:
- PowerPoint
- PDF reader (needed for directions only)
- Some way to keep score (whiteboard or paper/pencil work fine)
PREP AND INSTRUCTION:
- This game requires ZERO PREP. You can pull it up on your computer, and it is all ready to go!
- Students do not need any prior knowledge of the questions. All of the questions are multiple choice, so they can always take a guess. Many answers are logical–you can talk students through figuring them out if they are stuck.
- Every answer slide includes additional information about the answer. This game is instructional, and students are guaranteed to learn lots of new fun facts!
ABOUT THE GAME:
