Task Card Review Activity – How to utilize them more effectively in your classroom

By Fergy on April 28, 2014 0

Task CardsNot too long ago I had no idea what a task card was or how it could effectively be utilized in the classroom.  I did some research and what I found was that task cards were simply worksheets, broken down into individual questions posted onto cue cards and I wasn’t really that impressed.  I started thinking about what I could do to make task cards into an engaging, high energy review game.

So I made something and  have used it ever since in my classroom.  The point of the game is to get the kids engaged and excited about solving the problems.  As they do, they start to decipher an inspirational quote.  I have used these cards as both a classroom activity as well as an individual worksheet to be done in class or at home.  Either way the students are engaged and want to complete the activity so they can get the answer.
