Starter Activity - Perfect Recall

A really, really simple idea based on Terry Wogan’s perfect recall gameshow.

Simply 12 key words on the board arranged in a grid formation. For example, recently I used words like working capital, acid test, current ratio (having just done ratios’ with Year 11) as well as general business terms like objectives, primary research, secondary research etc.

I then read out the definition’s 1 - 12 and the kids needed to match the definition with the key word. Brilliant for differentiation as the answers are on the board allowing all students to access the material.

Enjoy….............
