Physical ScienceUnit 2:
Electricity and Energy ResourcesUnit Project 3Introduction: Your students have read, studied, listened and learned all about electricity. Next they'll create a review game to test their understanding and commit those concepts to memory. Process: Have students review major concepts using their class materials and the sites linked here. Tell them to visit the game-making site and choose a format. They should then follow the instructions for creating their games and challenge classmates in a review play-off. Time: 1 class period for research and design, 1 class period for construction and review Alternative: Choose one game format for the whole class. Have students contribute questions and answers to create one combined game.
