BTEC health and social care anatomy and physiology renal system game

Renal system mastery game for BTEC level 3 health and social care unit 3: anatomy and physiology

Make learning appear effortless with this mastery game for the renal system which focuses on structure and function of the renal system. There are several ways to play the game including both individual and team games.
Students can play individually by laying the 16 cards face down in 4 rows of 4. They must start from the top right and define and locate the key term on the card. If they get the answer correct, they can leave the card face up, if not they must turn it back over again. They will not be able to revisit that card until they have finished going though all the cards. How quickly can they learn all the key terms?

The game can also be played in small teams using a game board and counters. The group has a set of cards in a pile face down. Students will take it in turns for other students to ask them to define one of the key terms. If they get it right, they can move their counter one place up the mountain. If they get the answer wrong, they must make a note of the card and can study the card during the game. When all students get to base camp, they must have a last attempt to answer all the cards they could not manage earlier. The object of the game is for all students to reach the top of the mountain at the same time, so they need to help each other out.

This resource includes:
• A PDF document including 16 cards relating to the renal system. These should be printed double-sided so the key term will be on the back.
• A PDF mountain climbing board.
