W4-9 Modified Musical Chairs
Have 8 chairs
labeled with the following tags: History
Timeline, History, Latin, Science, English, Math, Geography, and Free
Space. Put all of the flashcards that
need to be reviewed in a brown paper bag.
Have students walk around the chairs while playing the Classical Music
For Dummies CD (which we will be using next quarter). When the music stops, the students sit in the
chairs. Draw out a flashcard and the
student in the corresponding chair attempts to answer the question. If the student answers correctly, he/she
remains in the game. If the student does
not answer correctly, he/she stands next to the wall. The game continues until only one student is
remaining. If all of the flashcards have
not been reviewed by the time the game is over, play again.
