Description
Review for a test over government with Texas Government Task Cards. There are 32 question cards that are a combination of recall, primary source quotes, and images. Challenge your students at a variety of levels! Differentiate by giving certain cards to your students. A blank template is included at the end if you wish to include more questions. The Answer Sheet has space for up to 40 questions. I recommend that you laminate the cards so that you can use them year after year.
These task cards have multiple uses in your classroom. You can:
– Set up centers to review for a test.
– Play a game of “Scoot”. Place the task cards around the room and allow students to travel from one card to the next as they answer the questions.
– Use them as an anchor station as you reteach small groups.
– Play Kaboom!
– Need a quick formative assessment? Pass out a few of these task cards and have students answer them at the end of a lesson.
These task cards include questions on the Texas and US Constitution – Bill of Rights and Principles of Government.

I especially like the pg 3 list of descriptions of Task Card Games. I have to provide a long term substitute with materials (no worksheets) and this list will allow her to engage the students in a variety of ways.
