Design for a game called 'Revenge Ball' with roles: Writer, Speaker, Fact Checker, and Shooter, each with a description of their task. The title is styled in a graffiti font, and the background is dark with purple and black splashes.

REVENGE BALL: A FUN REVIEW GAME FOR ANY SUBJECT

This was my take on “Trashketball” (a pretty popular game on TpT). Except you know I had to put a DHT spin on it so there’s student roles, timers built into the slides, and I used a streetball design to bring everything together. (There’s a slide with the game rules, I gotchu)

A woman with long dark hair and a striped shirt is sitting at a table, looking at her phone. Two young men, one in a hoodie and the other with short curly hair, stand beside her, observing her phone. There is a bottle of Ajax dish soap, a basket, and a plate on the table.

THE DAILY SQUABBLE: GREAT QUESTIONS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

The Daily Squabble was born when I taught a Debate elective and wanted a fun warm up for the last month of school. There’s 20 questions that are sure to get your students talking. They range from lighthearted (Are there more doors in the world or wheels?) to heavier topics (Should teenagers ever be tried as adults and placed in adult prisons?).
