Interactive Civil War Review Game Slide Deck for 7th-Grade U.S. History Created in Minutes

Turning Dry Review Notes into an Exciting Classroom Game

Amber, Middle School Social Studies Teacher, had a list of key Civil War people, groups, events, and battles to review with her 7th graders before the unit test, but wanted an interactive slide deck game with fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice questions to make test prep fun and memorable. Building an engaging, visually appealing review game from scratch used to take hours in Google Slides.

Her request was focused:

“Make a review game for 7th graders using this information: People/Groups—54th Massachusetts, Abraham Lincoln, Clara Barton, Harriet Tubman, Robert E. Lee... Events/Battles—1st Battle of Bull Run, Antietam, Emancipation Proclamation, Gettysburg, Sherman's March to the Sea...”
