Staple Game Replaced!

My students need buzzers for in class learning activities, like review games, in order to replace the broken stapler we currently use as our "buzzer."

My Students

My students have named the review game they play in class "the stapler game," because an archaic broken stapler is currently their "buzzer." My students need a new "buzzer" to push their learning games into the modern age!

My students are hard-working, honorable high school seniors who enjoy friendly competition.

They relish in our review games as they excitedly learn important, difficult class material. They compete in the spirit of fun and wisdom! My students work together not only to learn, but also to exceed my high expectations of them.

My Project

The educational games my students can play using the Eggspert are unlimited. Simply using our stapler, we have played games exploring the Greek mythological origins of the word to rhetorical strategies to vocabulary review. With the Eggspert, my students will be able to compete in teams of two or three instead of the whole class competing. With smaller learning teams, I will be able to better understand and assess what my students know and what material we may need to revisit. These games inspire my students to study and make learning fun and exciting.

Since I have begun using the "stapler game," I have watched my students test scores rise dramatically.

Learning games really work to help them understand difficult material. The Eggspert would give my students a broader range of interesting learning activities to enhance their performance, all while having fun!
