Study Tool Requirements
Graphic Organizer Booklet
Video Collage
Board Game
Create a booklet with three different graphic organizers. Each organizer reviews a different concept and has at least 10 details. The cover of your booklet lists the concepts your booklet reviews, has 2-3 relevant images, and key terms or formulas make up the border. Cover at least 3 details with questions on sticky notes, one at each of Costa's levels.
Create a Google document with the following: A list of three concepts you need to review, a 3 sentence summary of each concept, a video link to a video that explains the concept, and 4 questions (1 level 1, 2 level 2, 1 level 1) and answers.
Make a board with a title that is catching and a subtitle that says which 3 concepts your game reviews. Then, add 4 relevant and labeled images/diagrams to your board. The board game must have a path that players have to move across with cards they have to pull and answer to move forward. You must have at least 15 cards with 5 level 1 questions and 10 level 2-3 questions.
