Roaring 20s Great Depression New Deal Review Game Swat the Star EOC Review

Do your students need a review over the Roaring 20s, Great Depression & New Deal? Do you want to review in a fun way and not throw another worksheet at them? Swat the Star is the answer!

This is a fun way to review for your test or for your end of the year exam. Students "swat" the answer (using cheap fly swatters) - for a team competition. Topics covered are listed below. I've included a blank star in case you want to add your own topics.

To play this game you will need 2 different colors of fly swatters. Simply print these stars out and laminate them (or use sheet protectors) and tape them on your wall. One member of each team will be "up" to answer a question that you ask orally. The first to swat the answer wins a point for their team.

This is based on the Texas TEKS.

I have provided questions to ask - but you can certainly ask your own questions - mine are just a starting point!

This is flexible! If you don't teach a concept, leave it out. If you need to add more - you have a blank star to add your own!

Easy prep! Tons of fun competition.
