A fast-paced, collaborative and active revision activity where students work in relay teams to answer a series of questions on any topic.

The resource includes a set of instructions for the teacher, detailing how to set up and coordinate the teams as they race to be the first team to answer all the questions correctly.

It's perfect for groups where movement is a must or for rousing more interest in a topic when students are flagging!

Students read the text individually, then wrote the questions as a group then passed them on to the next group who had to write or draw a response for each question. An excellent activity the encouraged the students to devise and create their own adaptations. Thank you for sharing this teaching resource with us.

I teach Read180 reading intervention class. Sometimes getting students to crack open a book is like pulling teeth. Introducing teamwork and competition to the process got every single student involved! Thank you for this great idea!
