The past week I have been reviewing with my students for their midterms and have transformed their review into a Jeopardy style review game! They have been having great fun as well as I have and they are seeing they know alot more than they think AAAAAND studying at the same time. I have found this the best way to review exams (especially big tests like midterms and final exams) with them and achieve a higher retention from them…. and not a higher level of memorization which I try to diverge from. If you would like to try this review game plus many others that I have created for different subject material, then hop on over to my teacher resource site TeachPower.net and preview the rest of my collection. Order any that suit your needs and you will have them in your hands within the week. What I am really trying to do is to build the amount of resources on our site and expand into other subject areas (math, history, english, etc.) for all education levels [K - college]. If you have any contributions you think other teachers would appreciate then email me and I will create the webpage for your submissions.
So how do you find is the best way to review in your classroom for tests?
