The Mnemonic Game That'll Make Your Head Spin!
« on: June 17, 2015, 02:10:39 AM »
I have made another game that deals with mnemonics. Students learn each sentence through acronyms and then repeat it back from memory.

Great for warm-ups and cool-downs.

p.s.

Download the fonts so that the sentences will load properly in the slides.

Best.

Thank you so much toddsqui.  I will definitely use this. 

I just want to let you know about two small things that need fixing.
Slide 4: WOOB -> GOOB
Slide 10-21: you forgot to include BHT after introducing it.

Tried this game in my class and it went alright. Killed about 10 minutes.

Thanks for the corrections and the compliments.

ChrisKorea, don't be jealous.

You should have put more shirtless guys and had shaving and such, just for the excitement factor. Is here a reason you dropped Brush His Teeth?

Yeah, I really wanted to heighten the homo-eroticism for my high school boys. Totally would win votes with my colleagues. lol.

Re brush teeth: no reason. I'm lazy.

Thanks for the feedback.

He he. I was serious about the Brush His Teeth slide. You introduce it (BHT), but then don't mention it again. Is that an error or was there a reason behind it?

ChrisKorea - Truly, that's the honest-to-God answer. I make these PPTs so that I don't have to work ever again. And if I miss a few slides here and there while making a bajillion powerpoints, so be it. It's a small price to pay for the ultimate goal of being lazy.

Lalateacher- Thanks for making the modifications! Honestly, I'm so lazy that I probably wouldnt have done it myself. Glad you stepped up to the plate to do it for me. Much much appreciate it!


Sincerely,


T

Okay, okay... I made the modification to the slide that changes WOOB to GOOB.

So now the PPT should be perfect, plus or minus the shirtless guy (totally your call as a teacher).

Enjoy!

Thanks Todd. Y'know you're so lazy that I'm almost tempted to make my own from scratch  ;D
