150+ Review Activities
Play is powerful! But there is so much more to playful pedagogy than simple guessing games. Moving beyond the traditional speed-focused, multiple-choice style review affairs can offer students all sorts of educational benefits. At EMC² Learning, we design activities that challenge students to fuse their content knowledge with creativity, ensuring a deeper understanding of the material while still packing in some serious fun. EMC² Learning resources encourage students to collaborate with their peers in a friendly, competitive environment, fostering a sense of community and mutual support. And by offering playful alternatives to review that encourage creativity and teamwork (without requiring students to stare at a screen!), our review games create an inclusive atmosphere where every student’s contribution is valued, and the rising tide lifts all ships.Â
50+ Activities for Centers & Stations
Lose that lecture and get your students into the game! Using Centers and Stations activities in classrooms can provide classrooms with a dynamic and engaging learning experience that keeps students squarely at the center of their own learning. In the inclusive spirit of the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework, these activities break the monotony of traditional lectures by offering varied, hands-on opportunities for students to explore content in depth. Centers and Stations promote active learning, allowing students to take charge of their education through self-directed tasks and collaborative problem-solving. Foster critical thinking and choice in your classroom, giving students the opportunity to delve into your content from multiple perspectives, ensuring a well-rounded understanding while quietly setting the stage for some seriously impressive collaborative problem-solving and the development of all sorts social skills along the way.

Alternative assessments provide students with a more comprehensive and authentic measure of their understanding by allowing learners to demonstrate their knowledge and skills in diverse ways. From projects to presentations, portfolios to and performance-based tasks, these next-gen strategies for summative assessment go beyond old school essays that can easily be written by ChatGPT and enable your students to showcase their strengths and creativity in all sorts of diverse ways that still manage to hit upon every standard that your curriculum might ever throw their way.
