Class Presentation Games

If you're looking for games to play at the start, end or during a presentation (which some call class presentation games), check out the pages linked from my menu above.

**Latest Game...Now Using Google Slides! - Click to see my most recent classroom creativity game.

Most of my games fall in two broad categories--Creativity games and Critical Thinking games.  Those pages are also accessible from the on the top of any page in this site. In both cases there are technology based versions and traditional paper and pencil versions.

Many of those same technology based games are listed on this page, but in other categories and subcategories.

These remaining versions games are Flipchart files for ActivInspire

I started making the tech based interactive classroom games with Promethean's ActivInspire software.  It can be downloaded for free for use on any computer system with a projector.

(There are probably several links for these games throughout this blog that point to Promethean Planet that are no longer active.  I am in the process of updating the site, but for now, you can download the games from the links below.)

My most popular games:

• This or That? - This file had the most downloads.  It's an icebreaker activity for students of all ages.
• Oh, Really! Back to School Edition - My second most popular game, it's based on Oh, Really!
• Say Anything - This is a simple, open-ended game that allows students to exercise their imagination.
• Split Decision - A creative game where students try to create the toughest options for the class to choose from.

These are my critical thinking classroom activities based on my game Oh, Really:

• Basic game - This flexible version of the game allows the class to play in various ways in many subject areas.
• Back to School Edition - Pre-selected items are geared toward introducing students, thinking of summer or getting back to the routine of school.
• Government Edition - Content is appropriate for discussing topics in a government course.
• Debate Edition - Items in this edition would work well for any debate club or speech class.
• Vocations Edition - Words and questions in this game are chosen to focus on career planning and life goals.
• Family and Consumer Science Edition - This set of words and questions focuses on budgets, spending  and other decisions.
• Bible/Christian Edition - Items and questions in this game can get students thinking about the Bible and biblical values.

Games based on Wits & Wagers (by North Star Games):

• Life Science Edition - Students are encouraged to guess number facts related to life sciences.
• U.S. History Edition - In this game, students guess numbers and dates related to U.S. History.

Other games:

• Say Anything:  Back to School Edition - The same simple creativity game listed above, but with some questions geared toward the start of school.
• Nim and Ximo - This flipchart is based on the game of Nim.  My classes had a lot of fun with that game and some variations when I taught high school math.

Donations are definitely accepted!
If you find any of these flipcharts useful, please consider donating $1 to $3.  Any money I receive this way will be used in my district to purchase resources for technology integration. I and my students greatly appreciate your support!  I would love to hear how you use the resources too.
