? This is one of the fun educational games that goes by different names but that is universally recognized and has been tested to work great in classroom and after school settings. In this game, you read the students a clue on a piece of paper, and then it leads them to the next clue. In after school settings, you can make the clues only about the next hiding place, but in a classroom setting, you would go ahead and make each clue geared towards your lesson plan and related back to the hiding place. Do you see how the fun as well as the correlation can help the content resonate in the student’s minds.
Knowledge correlation is one great way to help a student work towards memory retention. That is why singing songs and learning at the same time is very valuable to a student’s education as well. As for the next game idea, it is always a good idea to put the students in groups. This changes the educational setting, and why not play a game of group Jeopardy
? This can be a lot of fun, and you can provide a prize as incentive. This always works well when you are reviewing a chapter or unit plan. You can do this to help them recall different information and study for the test. You can even make a review sheet handout for them to fill out as the game continues along. Fun educational games are always a big hit in the classroom as they shake things up for the students a little from all the monotony.
