This is an interactive PPT that allows students to review content from a unit on the Age of Exploration and the Scientific Revolution. Can be used for 7th graders or as a review for 8th graders
How to play:
Split the class into two even teams & pick a scorekeeper
Call up the first student from each team and hand the student s unused flyswatters. A rulers or hand works, too
One mouse click brings up a question, another click reveals the answer, and a third click makes the question go away
The two competing students read the question, scan the board for the answer, and 'swat' the correct answer
If a student answers correctly, they stay up to go against the next opponent
The team with the most points by the end of the game wins!
