Hey, What's the Big Idea Game | Good Sensory Learning
A Fast-Paced Game for Mastering Main Ideas, Details, and Critical Thinking
Looking for a fun and effective way to strengthen your students’ language and writing skills?
"Hey, What’s the Big Idea," developed by Dr. Erica Warren, is an innovative, fast-paced word game that helps players sharpen word recall, strengthen categorization skills, and master the essential concepts of main ideas and supporting details.
How the Game Works:
Players choose a topic card from one of three leveled decks and race against a two-minute timer to list as many related details as possible. Once time’s up, they organize their list under a central main idea. The more accurate and well-structured their response, the more points they earn!
