4 review-day ideas before winter break: escape rooms, games and more

The stretch between Thanksgiving and winter break is tough. Students are restless, testing is coming, and the last thing anyone wants is another worksheet. Review days don't have to be a fight, though. These are the ones that worked best in the classrooms I've been in.

1. Run an escape room.

Students work in teams to solve clues tied to your unit, and they have to know the content to unlock the next step. The competition does the motivating for you. Digital versions work great on Chromebooks, and you can run them without prep.

2. Gallery walk with a twist.

Post five or six key questions or images around the room. Groups rotate every four minutes and add one new fact to each poster. The last group has to summarize the whole poster for the class.

3. Quiz-show warm-ups.

Turn your bell ringers into a running team score for the week. Same questions you'd ask anyway, but now there's a winner on Friday.

4. Let students build the study guide.

Give each group one section of the unit and have them write the review page for it. Copy the pages together and the class has a study guide they actually read.

If you'd like review days that are already built, my escape rooms cover history, geography, civics, and science, in print and digital.

Happy Planning,

Earth science bell ringers and warm-ups for classroom review


Science Warm Ups Science Bellwork, NGSS Bellwork, Science Homework, NGSS Homework
Are you looking for ways to make your bellringers more engaging and support the Earth Science content.  I always had multiple types of student in my class so it was hard to find a quick activity that was meaningful, engaging and that ALL students would benefit from.   They include components to HELP ESL and ESS students understand the content and they cover all fundamental knowledge needed for masting the NGSS standards.  You could use these as science homework, or science tickets out each day.  As a bonus, I have made them digital and perfect for google classroom to save paper!  Below you will see a list of what is included in each set and you can click here to see a preview of each.
