Reviews
We had diagnostic testing that took up 3 out of 4 of my classes. For the 4th block, we played 4 Corners Shuffle. I asked for volunteers to share their reasons 4 their choices, and we got through about 2/3 of the slides in one class period. We had another testing session the following week and the kids wanted to play again. Fortunately, there is a blank template slide included, so I was able to easily add more questions. If we get to play again, I asked kids to submit their own questions! So fun!
