Five classroom games with flashcards
- Quiz, quiz, trade: partners quiz each other with one card, swap cards and find a new partner.
- Around the world: two students race to answer; the winner moves to the next desk.
- Memory match: cards face down; turn over two to find a word and its meaning.
- Sort it: groups sort cards into categories (noun/verb, prime/composite, cause/effect).
- Leitner boxes: cards move to a “review less often” box when answered correctly.
What makes a good flashcard
- One idea per card — short on the front, a clear answer on the back.
- Questions that make students recall, not just recognise (“What is the capital of Peru?” rather than true/false).
- Pictures for younger students and language learners.
- Mixed-up order each time you review.
Printing tips
- Print one test sheet first to check the backs line up with your printer's double-sided setting.
- Card stock (heavier paper) lasts longer; laminating makes cards reusable with dry-erase markers.
- Print each set on a different colour of paper so sets don't get mixed up.
