My “piece de resistance”! A board game I created based on the topic of immumology. Instructions are on the game board itself (students can choose easy, medium or hard questions themselves) Can be played in pairs (although more fun in 3’s or 4’s). I made class sets by making and laminating several copies - they’ve lasted for years. This took me a long time to make and I’ve very proud of it! The students really enjoy this board game.

Easier for lower ability]

A 36 domino set that coveres water, lipids and nucleic acids There are seeral ways to play but here what I do: print and trim edges cut once down the middle, then left to right for all The Question on the right hand side of one dominoe matches to the left hand side of another. If all correct, it will form a complete loop

There are different ways to play this game, personally I: print, cut down the middle length-ways (once), then cut all cards left to right. Shuffle. The question is on the right of the domino, the matching answer on the left of a separate one. Students have to link them all together. Once finished it makes a complete loop.

After 2 mins the next team mate continues).
