1. Vocab smack-down
Read & listen to the clue given…then use your fly swatter to smack the correct key term! Whoever’s swatter is on the bottom of the stack on the correct answer gets a point. Keep track on the white board provided for your group table! Winners from each table will earn a reward!

2. Vocab smack-down RULES of the GAME:
You must keep your voice at a whisper
LISTEN/READ the correct answer on the board for EVERY question…
This game is to help you prepare for assessments!
If you cannot keep yourselves under control, you will have an alternative assignment:
Write definitions/characteristics of these terms 3 times each!
