History of Medicine: Emoji Revision

(0)
Created for a revision task where students roll dice to decide upon an emoji and must then link it in someway to something we have learnt about the topic e.g House = Model villages such as Bournville and Port Sunlight or fire = cauterization. It worked well with by lower ability students having something to visualize we then began explaining and describing in more detail. Students take it in turns rolling the dice if they land on the someone as someone else they need to think of a different connection. I have also used this in lesson in conjunction with some of my other revision board games
