Contains the script of the reading. Teacher cuts it up and scrambles it before class. In groups, students re-arrange it into the correct order. Possibly while listening to the audio track of the reading. Google (drive, docs, pub)
Quizlet: This was a fun little experiment we did in class one day. After completing the reading, the students came up with their own questions and answers about the reading, which I typed up on the computer at the front of class. Then they competed to see who could get the best scores in the games
