Word search

I plan to implement a word search for future reviews. I also love the idea of Make me a Match cards. Great idea!

Jennifer, I'm glad you are thinking about using different methods.

I never thought about using the word search on a test before, it is something that I am going to try out in the future.

Just used a word search today. The students are relieved at the challenge.

Word searches are a great quiz review tool. I use the word search with the definintion of the term and they have to identify the term and then find it. It's a double reinforcement of what is on the quiz.

Word search is a good activity because students will become familiar with the spelling of medical terms in a fun amusing way- whether the terms are arranged vertically, diagonally, horizontally, etc. They also feel like it is somewhat a contest and whoever finished first will get rewards like extra points to a quiz or project.

I have used the word search and cross word puzzels and the students really seem to enjoy them a lot. I am going to try the contentration game.

I've created word searches in the past. I not only implemented them as in class assignments, but I also used them on test. My students loved them so much that they begged for me to create more. Nice post enjoy creating new projects for your students.

Lisa, I wish you all good things in your class.
