Two Review Games for Any Subject

Better Baseball

You will need:

Two baseball diamonds drawn on the board

A cup with 30 cards:

6 outs

6 home runs

6 single

6 doubles

6 triples

Each student is given a review question to answer. If question is answered correctly, the student's battery does the following:

Out- board is cleared

Single- move one base

Double- move two bases 

Triple- move two bases

Home Run- automatic 1 point score, if a battery is on a base, that person scores too

*Every time a student hits first base,  1 point is scored.  After each student has a turn, the highest score wins.

Walk the Plank

You will need:

Painter's Tape

A cup with 40 cards:

10 move up one space

5 move back one space

10 move up two spaces

5 move back two spaces

10 change player

Divide the class into two teams.  Make 10 tape lines per team from back of the room to front of the room.  Each team picks a representative to walk the plank.  This person starts on the first line.  *Note: if teams struggle with choosing a representative, teacher can assist by pulling sticks, having students pick a number, etc.  Teams take turns answering review questions.  If question answers are correct, students pull cards and follow directions.  First team to get to the front of the classroom wins.
