Elizabethan England: Emoji Revision

Elizabethan England: Emoji Revision

(7)
Created for a revision task where students roll dice to decide upon an emoji and must then link it in someway to something we have learnt about the topic e.g Ship = Spanish Armada or baby = succession crisis . It worked well with by lower ability students having something to visualize we then began explaining and describing in more detail. Students take it in turns rolling the dice if they land on the same one as someone else they need to think of a different connection. I have also used this in lesson in conjunction with some of my other revision board games

WW1: Trench Story Activity/Homework

WW1: Trench Story Activity/Homework

(1)
This activity is designed to aid student writing and build up literacy. Students roll a pair of dice and find the emoji that corresponds to this, they then have to use the emoji in their first sentence e.g. If they landed in the rain it could be “My first day on duty and rain was crashing around me, turn the trench into a bog.” They then repeat to find out their next topic to include. This works well as away of building literacy into a lesson or I usually print these out and set this as a homework task. Setting a maximum and minimum amount of rolls, and setting a competition to create the most creative story.
