Like the classic TV quiz, a short starter testing knowledge of characters in Anthony Horowitz' 'Groosham Grange' Instructions for use in seperate word file

Instructions are on the sheet for pupils. A choice based homework task to set at the beginning of a half term, allowing pupils to choose their own task each week. Focused on skills of researching, creativity and reading and writing. A word document so that it can be edited to suit different topics and tasks can be altered slightly.

<p>These A-Z quizzes are perfect for using with any of the Blockbusters templates that are freely available online.</p> <p>The quizzes cover An Inspector Calls, Jekyll &amp; Hyde, and Power and Conflict poetry.</p> <p>Can also be adapted into written A-Z quizzes for pupils to tackle individually.</p> <p>Perfect as cover or end of term fun.</p>

<p>Covering Of Mice and Men, Heroes and An Inspector Calls, these sheets follow the structure of the game Blockbuster. Students have to complete tasks on each text and work their way across the “board”.</p>

<p>Three sheets covering Of Mice and Men, An Inspector Calls and Heroes based on the game Blockbuster. Students have to work their way from one side of the board to the other, completing tasks based on the texts.</p>

<p>These are the resources needed to adapt a Blockbuster Game so that when pupils play it they can talk about their books and reading habits.</p> <p>This resources includes:</p> <ul> <li>Blockbuster instructions</li> <li>Blockbuster A-Z cards (you will need two copies) - the front of the question cards</li> <li>Blockbuster Question Cards - these are the back of the question cards</li> <li>Dice colours - these can be stuck onto a wooden dice.</li> </ul> <p>You will need a physical copy of the Blockbuster game to make this game up.</p>

<p>The blockbusters TV gameshow lends itself perfectly to reviewing almost any subject, especially languages. A player or team leader selects a letter, then the teacher gives a hint or definition as to what word it stands for. The first player or team* to answer gets that spot. The first team to join their sides of the game board wins.</p> <p>This is endlessly replayable - as long as you can think of a word, you’ve got a question.</p> <p>I’ve also included a “Gold Run” bonus game - in this case practicing English idioms, but could be altered to be about almost anything.</p> <p>This is by far my students’ favourite game, they get incredibly competitive with it!</p> <p>*due to the nature of the game board, the teams should be slightly imbalanced, either in ability or in numbers - just like on the show.</p>

This game is for two or two pairs of players sitting opposite. You need a set of counters in different colours for each player. Shuffle the word definition cards and place them in a pile face down.<br /> <br /> You are going to cross the board from left to right.<br /> Take it in turns to pick a word definition card from the pile. If you can think of a word that uses a consonant cluster in the far left row, you tell the other players what it is and put your coloured counter on that hexagon.

Instructions on how to use my blockbusters starter powerpoint

<p>Blockbusters is a fully editable 5 slide PowerPoint presentation which can be adapted to provide a quick and fun starter or plenary activity to any lesson. Blockbusters works in exactly the same way as the TV show. The resource contains three ready made boards which can be changed or added to. Blockbusters provides a lively and engaging end to a lesson and can help teachers informally assess how much pupils have understood. It can also be used as a starter activity as it is an effective way of engaging and focusing pupils at the start of a lesson.</p> <p><strong>Not quite what you’re looking for?

A half term worth of homework for KS3 creative writing.

Students need to be in two teams. A volunteer from each team must come to the front. Volunteers must answer a series of questions to try cross the square vertically or horizontally. They’re allowed to ask for help from their team twice. They’re only allowed to choose one person to answer the question. <br /> <br /> This resource includes a PowerPoint and a series of 18 questions with answers. Example of three questions below: <br /> F – How do you spell Frankenstein? <br /> C – Who is Frankenstein’s friend? Walton<br /> I – In which city does Frankenstein live? Ingolstadt<br />

<p>Here is the blank template for Busters and MathBusters (a version of BlockBusters), updated finally for 2021!</p> <p>Students work in teams to answer questions and make their way across the game board. The winner is the team that makes it from one side to the other without being blocked by their rivals!</p> <p>This resource was originally designed for Mathematics teaching, but the blank Busters template can be used across all subjects and grade levels.</p> <p>Feel free to comment on how you used it in your lessons!</p>
