Children love finding out sneaky shortcuts and new ideas when playing games. They can even post the reviews in the Appstore of Google Play giving them purpose and an audience to write.ġ0) Write ‘top tips’ for playing. What do you like about Crossy Road? What don’t you like? How could it be improved? Would you recommend it to friends? Why? Prompt questions can help scaffold their reviews: Do all of your students like the game? Ask them to write a review, sharing their opinions with others. How many cars would pass if 15 trains went by?ĩ) Write a review for the game. What about challenging your pupils to create Crossy Road word problems?ġ8 cars pass by for every 3 trains. Why not ask students to count the passing cars. The students can use the images of the different vehicles from the game.Ĩ) Use it in a mathematics lesson. This is perfect if you are working with younger children and studying the popular topic, ‘Transport’. In addition, the game is a great way to introduce the drawing of 3D shapes and shadows.ħ) Make a fact booklet featuring all the modes of transport in the game. Use a stamping technique or squared paper to reproduce some of the images from the game.
The graphics are really simple but children love them (they are similar to Minecraft).
This is the perfect tool for explanations! I use this App:Ħ) Do some art focusing on the style of Crossy Road. Screen-recorder apps (just search in the Appstore or Google Play) will allow your students to take a video of the game whilst they are playing it and at the same time record their voice. I froze in sheer terror.ĥ) Record the screen and explain how to play. Ask your students to play the game and then use their imaginations to create some fictional writing.Īs I looked to the east, I shivered as the speeding bullet got closer and closer.
