Day 37 - 42 1st Quarter Exam & Review

We did several things to review for the 1st Quarter Exam including:
  1. Study Guide
  2. Online Jeopardy (free) or Interactive Jeopardy (every student participates)
    Answer sheet & question cards (read outloud or use under a document reader)
  3. Flash cards
  4.  Fan and Pick (Kagan strategy) I used the same information from the study guide and flash cards except I put the question and answer on the same side of the card (see below).  Students work in groups of 3 or 4.  One student fans the cards, 2nd student picks a card, 3rd student reads the card.  The person that gets the answer correct keeps the card then they switch jobs. ex. 2nd student fans, 3rd student picks, 4th student reads.
*Students really like this  - they get very competitive!
