Geography Activities: Games
- Have students create a North Dakota geography board game using the North Dakota geography questions provided in the Teacher Resource Guide.
- Have students play these games using questions from the text: BINGO, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Trivial Pursuit, etc. The following site is a wonderful site with templates, directions, and examples of Jeopardy, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, or Hollywood Squares using PowerPoint. Suggested Categories: Counties and Cities of North Dakota; Water in North Dakota; Landforms in North Dakota; Location of North Dakota and Tourism Sites.
- Play North Dakota Geography Bingo. Have students fill in the blank boxes with geography words provided. Have a list of words created along with the definition and cut them into small pieces.
The caller will select a card, read the definition, and the students will place a marker on the word that matches the definition. When BINGO is called, the student must read the word and give the definition before it is counted. (Note: This can be used as an assessment tool.)
